Is kaat and ruqyah the same thing?
+
Ruqyah is the broader term for Islamic healing using Quranic verses and duas. Rohani ilaj (spiritual healing) encompasses all Quranic and Sunnah-based treatments for spiritual and physical ailments. Kaat specifically refers to the nullification of harmful spiritual afflictions — particularly sihr, jadu, and their effects. All kaat involves ruqyah, but not all ruqyah is kaat.
What does the consultation actually include?
+
The consultation includes: an in-depth assessment of your described symptoms, identification of the likely type of concern (sihr, nazar, ayn, jinn), a clear explanation of the relevant Islamic rulings, and a personalised written rohani ilaj and ruqyah plan specifying Quranic surahs, recitation frequency, and how to prepare and use ruqyah water. The scholar guides you throughout — practice is carried out by you at home according to the Sunnah.
How many consultations will I need?
+
This depends entirely on the type and severity of the concern. Nazar and ayn may require only one to two consultations. Sihr concerns may require follow-up consultations over several weeks. Mufti Hasan will give you a realistic picture after the initial consultation — no specific number of sessions or outcomes is guaranteed.
What is ruqyah water and how do I prepare it?
+
Ruqyah water is water over which specific Quranic verses have been recited. A core part of rohani ilaj, based on the practice of the Prophet ﷺ and his companions. Mufti Hasan provides complete instructions — which surahs to recite, how many times, the correct method, and how to use the water — explaining the Sunnah basis for each step.
Can a consultation be arranged for a child or third party?
+
Yes. A parent or guardian can request a rohani ilaj consultation on behalf of a child. A family member can seek guidance for a relative who is unable to make contact themselves. The scholar advises the parent or carer on the correct Islamic practices to carry out on the affected person's behalf at home.
What practices does the scholar not recommend?
+
Mufti Hasan does not recommend: amulets containing unknown writing, burying or burning items, contacting jinn for diagnosis, taskheer (commanding jinn), planetary or lunar timing from astrology, mixing Islamic practices with cultural folk methods lacking Sunnah basis, or anything involving shirk. If a method cannot be clearly traced to the Quran and Sahih hadith, it will not be recommended.
My symptoms worsen during Quran recitation. Is that normal?
+
Worsening symptoms during Quranic recitation can sometimes indicate that rohani ilaj is having an effect. It should not cause fear. Continue with the recitation as prescribed. Mufti Hasan will guide you through how to respond to these reactions. Always ensure physical symptoms are also assessed medically by a qualified professional.
Can I perform ruqyah for myself (self-ruqyah)?
+
Yes — self-ruqyah is encouraged and forms the foundation of any kaat and rohani ilaj programme. The Prophet ﷺ recited over himself and taught his companions to do the same. Mufti Hasan will teach you the correct self-ruqyah method. Your own consistent daily recitations at home are the most important part of the entire process.
