Wa `alaykum As-Salamu wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.

 

This practice is not right. The correct way to perform ruqyah is what the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to do for his (grand) sons al-Hasan and al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them).

 

According to Al-Bukhari, Ibn `Abbas said:  The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to seek refuge with Allah for al-Hasan and al-Husayn, and he said: “Your father Ibrahim used to seek refuge with (these words) for Ismaa‘eel and Ishaaq: A‘oodhu bi kalimaat Illaahi’t-taammah min kulli shaytaanin wa haammah wa min kulli ‘aynin laammah (I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from every devil and every vermin, and from every bad eye)”.

 

It is also recommended to recite the last two chapters of the Quran into your hands and blow in them, spitting lightly, then wipe them over whatever you can reach of your body, or to recite them into water and drink it. The following method may be also effective for you:

 

1) Sit down in a quiet area with the intention to make ruqyah on yourself. Ensure there are no children running around or the tv is not on in the background. You shouldn’t be disturbed. Have a glass of water and a 2 or 5 liter bottle of water handy.

 

2) Seek refuge in Allah from the Shaytaan three times – Aouthubillahi min-ash-shaytaan arrajeem

 

3) Mention the name of Allah three times – bismillahir-rahman nir-raheem

 

4) Read sura fatiha three times

 

5) Read ayatul kursi three times

 

6) Read last two ayaat or surat al baqarah three times

 

7) Read sura ikhlas / falaq / nas three times each

 

8 )  Recite verses of majic three times each – 2:102 / 7:115 – 121 / 10:79 – 82 / 20: 65 – 70

 

9) Spittle into the glass of water and also spittle into the bottle of water

 

10) Drink the water in the glass. Ensure you say bismillah

 

11) Drink the water in the bottle in the morning / evening / night

 

12) Make ghusl with the remaining water in that bottle ie. Pour that water over your head and ensure it touches all of your body

 

Almighty Allah knows best.
