There is no room here to enumerate the entire Ruqyah Shariah. Its essence and some of its recitations are mentioned in Fatwas 32150 and 79244. More details about it can be found in the books cited in Fatwa 165730.

Reciting over water for Ruqyah Shariah is an established practice, as mentioned in Fatwas 63033 and 36383.

What is permissible to recite over water for Ruqyah includes verses from the Quran, remembrances (adhkar), or authentic supplications (du'a). For more information, please refer to Fatwa 155385.
