The answer

One who is afflicted with illness is advised to strengthen their trust in Allah, then in themselves, and to seek the removal of the affliction from Him (Glorified be He). They should also consult specialists, such as psychologists. Additionally, they are advised to perform with the Quran and legitimate supplications, to maintain prescribed remembrances like morning and evening adhkar, to supplicate frequently, to seek refuge from Satan, and to associate with righteous people. As for the treatment mentioned in the question, it has no basis, and its proponent mentions it without evidence or experiences from righteous scholars. It is advisable to steer clear of it and suffice with the Quran and the narrated supplications, as it contains an allusion to astrology, which is a form of magic.
