Are the supplications mentioned for Ruqyah authentic?
The best things to use for ruqyah (exorcism/healing) against the evil eye, magic, and all illnesses are those confirmed from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, such as ruqyah with the Mu'awwidhat (Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas), Al-Fatiha, and the Qur'an generally, as well as prophetic supplications and invocations for protection. There is no harm in ruqyah with words that do not contain a Shariah-forbidden element, due to his, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: "There is no harm in ruqyah as long as it does not involve polytheism." The mentioned words are generally permissible, except for supplicating against someone other than the one who cast the evil eye. Some of these phrases were narrated from the early Muslims, such as the saying: "A restrainer has restrained, and a dry stone (has blocked)." If its benefit is proven by experience and it does not involve polytheism, then there is no harm in using it, while prioritizing ruqyah with what is confirmed from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.
