What is the ruling on practices that take place in the mosque, such as communal ruqyah and reciting the Qur’an for blessing at the time of divorce or graduation, which include passing around books of supplications, intermingling with women, and sprinkling water after reciting the Basmalah over it? Is this an innovation (bid‘ah)? And is there a book on the jurisprudence of ruqyah and incantations? And can ruqyah be used for things such as divorce and graduation?
