The question

How can a husband be treated with Ruqyah who suffers from a spell of attraction (sihr jalb), separation (sihr tafreeq), and unexplained abdominal pain that doctors cannot diagnose, along with a wife who suffers from a spell of hindering affairs (sihr waqf hal), and their children; to protect them from any harm?

The answer

If there is no apparent reason for what is happening to you and your husband, it could be due to sorcery (sihr), and this can be treated with (Islamic exorcism). It is preferable for a Muslim to perform Ruqyah on themselves, and if they need someone else to perform it for them, there is no harm in that.

One must be careful not to go to sorcerers and charlatans.

We recommend fortifying oneself and one's children with the Quran and the prescribed remembrances (adhkar).

We caution that accusing others of performing sorcery is a serious matter due to the ill-suspicion it entails towards a Muslim, which is a clear sin. Therefore, it is not permissible to proceed with such an accusation except with clear evidence.
