The answer

Delaying marriage does not necessarily mean it is due to magic (sihr), and a mother's prayer for her daughter is answered. A mother should pray for her daughters and present them to those whose religion and character are pleasing. Seeking (Islamic exorcism/healing) from a raqi (one who performs ruqyah) who adheres to the is permissible, but it is stipulated that the ruqyah must be understandable and not contain words of unknown origin. Breaking magic with lawful ruqyah is permissible, but using other methods from sorcerers and charlatans is forbidden. It is permissible to break it with what has proven beneficial, such as sidr (lote tree leaves) and medical drugs.
