What is the ruling on seeking help from a healer who uses the Quran to undo magic, knowing that he possesses jinn, and did not ask for a fee or reveal the name of the sorcerer, but only requested permission and the names of the residents and the mother's name? The treatment involved washing with water over which the Quran was recited, drinking it, and abundant recitation of the Quran. If this act is forbidden and a Muslim, in a state of weakness, fell into it after performing Istikhara and purifying their intention to seek Allah's help, what is its expiation?

Legal Ruqyah (exorcism according to Islamic law) and treatment with the Quran and supplications against magic are permissible matters. It is also permissible to drink and bathe with water over which Quranic verses have been recited. However, seeking assistance from jinn to undo magic is a matter of scholarly disagreement: some scholars have prohibited it out of fear of harm and shirk (polytheism), while others have permitted it for permissible matters. Nevertheless, seeking assistance from jinn often leads to prohibited actions that may escalate to shirk. As for a charlatan asking for the mother's name, this is one of their practices. There is no sin upon one who dealt with them out of ignorance, but in the future, one must inquire about the Islamic ruling. If one knew the prohibition of dealing with them, then repentance is due.
