Burning quranic verses to make ruqyah
Is it unlawful to burn papers containing Quranic verses in order to make Ruqyah or to break a spell or for protection against envy? Does such an act contradict the teachings of our religion or the Sunnah of our noble Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam? May Allaah Reward you.

What is reported from the righteous predecessors in terms of making Ruqyah with the Quran is that they used to recite the Quran before the sick person as Burning Quranic verses has not been reported to be a practice of the righteous predecessors but they used to burn it or any paper containing the Mention of Allaah out of protecting it from misuse. As for burning it in order to make Ruqyah for a sick person, we advise you to avoid this act because there is no evidence transmitted from the righteous predecessors – according to my knowledge – supporting this act. Ruqyah with the Quran is an act of worship; so, we cannot add anything to that which was not done by the righteous predecessors. Furthermore, burning papers to make Ruqyah is one of the customs of the jugglers, sorcerers and Christians. Allaah Knows best.
