What are the authentic supplications for healing from cancer?
There is no specific ruqyah for cancer in Islamic law. However, the patient can be treated with any legitimate ruqyah, as Allah has made the Quran a means of healing. The Fatiha, the two Mu'awwidhat (Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas), and Ayatul-Kursi, among others, have been specifically mentioned, and ruqyah can be performed with any lawful supplication or remembrance. What is found in the Quran and Sunnah is more hopeful for healing. It is also necessary to seek material remedies such as drinking Zamzam water, honey, and the medications prescribed by doctors.
