While basic Ruqyah techniques are essential for every believer, there are times when deeper healing is needed. This article explores advanced Ruqyah methods—practices drawn from the Qur’an, authentic Sunnah, and centuries of Islamic scholarship—to treat persistent spiritual ailments such as sihr (black magic), ayn (evil eye), hasad (envy), and jinn-related afflictions.
These techniques require a higher level of spiritual discipline, commitment, and purity. They are especially beneficial for those who have already been implementing foundational Ruqyah practices but continue to struggle with heavy symptoms or intense spiritual attacks.
The Mindset of the Healer: Tawheed, Taqwa, and Tawakkul
Before diving into specific techniques, one must refine their spiritual foundation. Ruqyah is not merely about rituals; it is about spiritual transformation. You must become a servant of Allah fully:
- Tawheed: Remove all traces of shirk, superstitions, and trust in anything besides Allah.
- Taqwa: Live a life of God-consciousness—through salah, modesty, halal income, and good character.
- Tawakkul: Believe without doubt that Allah alone can lift your affliction, no matter how dark the symptoms.
Only with this foundation can advanced Ruqyah be effective.
Structured Ruqyah Program (21-Day Cycle)
For deep healing, scholars and Raqis often recommend structured, consistent sessions over a period of weeks. A 21-day Ruqyah program includes daily rituals, focused recitations, and lifestyle changes that uproot spiritual diseases.
Daily Routine (Morning and Night):
- Full Wudu
- Pray 2 rak’ahs with the intention of seeking healing and refuge in Allah
- Recite the following Ruqyah set aloud or in a soft voice:
- Surah Al-Fatihah (x7)
- Ayat al-Kursi (x3)
- Surah Baqarah 2:285–286 (x3)
- Surah Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, An-Nas (x7 each)
- Surah Al-A’raf 7:117–122
- Surah Yunus 10:81–82
- Surah Taha 20:68–70
Note: These specific verses were often used by the Prophet (peace be upon him) and early scholars to combat sihr and jinn-related attacks.
After completing the recitation, blow over yourself or into water and oil as outlined in the first article. Apply the oil and drink the water throughout the day.
Surah Al-Baqarah Recitation Strategy
Surah Al-Baqarah is the most powerful chapter in the Qur’an for spiritual protection. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Whoever recites Surah Al-Baqarah in their home, shayatin will not enter it for three nights.”
For those afflicted with heavy symptoms, follow this method:
- Option A: Play an audio recitation of Surah Al-Baqarah every night before sleeping.
- Option B (Advanced): Break it into three parts and recite it with your own voice over three days, then repeat.
This builds spiritual immunity in the home and body.
Targeted Ruqyah Based on Symptoms
Different afflictions respond best to specific verses and techniques. Here’s a breakdown:
1. For Black Magic (Sihr):
- Use Ruqyah water to bathe (recite verses into a large bucket, pour it slowly from head to toe).
- Recite: Surah A’raf 117–122, Yunus 81–82, Taha 68–70.
- Burn ruqyah-recited frankincense (loban) or sidr leaves for scent purification.
2. For Evil Eye (Ayn):
- Identify source if possible—have them do ghusl and pour the water over yourself.
- Use Ruqyah water to wash face and upper body regularly.
- Recite Surah Yusuf 12:67 and standard Ruqyah verses.
3. For Jinn Possession:
- Combine recitation with cupping (hijama) on back of neck and spine.
- Avoid being alone at night.
- Fast Mondays and Thursdays to weaken the jinn’s hold.
- Have a guardian or pious companion present during attacks.
The Role of Sidr Leaves, Honey, and Zamzam Water
The Prophet (peace be upon him) emphasized natural elements in healing. When paired with Qur’anic recitation, their barakah increases.
- Sidr Leaves (Lote Tree): Crush 7 leaves, mix in water, recite Ruqyah over them, and bathe with this water. Especially helpful against sihr.
- Honey: Recite verses into honey and consume 1 teaspoon daily. A sunnah cure.
- Zamzam Water: Recite Qur’an into Zamzam and drink with full conviction in healing.
Sleeping Techniques for Night Protection
Night is a vulnerable time for spiritual attack. These habits protect the believer:
- Sleep on right side, facing qiblah.
- Place hand under cheek and recite:
“Allahumma bismika amootu wa ahyaa” (O Allah, in Your Name I die and live)
- Recite:
- Ayat al-Kursi (x1)
- Ikhlas, Falaq, Nas (x3) and blow over body
- Avoid sleeping in a state of impurity, anger, or anxiety.
- Keep Qur’an audio playing softly—particularly Surah Al-Baqarah or Yaseen.
What to Avoid During Deep Ruqyah Treatment
- Music, TV, social media distractions: They interrupt healing and attract shaytan.
- Arguments or foul language: Keep an atmosphere of dhikr and peace.
- Shirk-based solutions: Don’t seek out amulets, fortune tellers, or dubious “healers.”
- Isolation: Stay connected to the masjid, righteous friends, and Qur’an.
Final Words: The Believer Is His Own Healer
While Ruqyah experts and scholars are a blessing, the strongest healing often comes when the afflicted believer heals himself. It builds resilience, elevates taqwa, and draws the heart closer to Allah.
If you commit to a routine, avoid sin, and place full trust in Allah, even the darkest spiritual pain can be reversed. Ruqyah is not only a tool for healing—it’s a path to transformation.
If you feel overwhelmed, never forget: “Indeed, the help of Allah is near.” (Qur’an 2:214)
