  Marriage of human being with Jinn:

وقال الشيخ جمال الدين السجستانى من أئمة الحنفية فى كتاب (منية المفتى)عازيا له إلى الفتاوى السراجية : لاتجوز المناكحة بين الإنس والجن وإنسان الماء لإختلاف الجنس لقوله تعالى "ومن أياته أن خلق لكم من أنفسكم أزواجا لتسكنوا إليهاوجعل بينكم مؤدة

         ورحمة إن فى ذالك لأيات لقوم يتفكرون "

  و قال الله تعالى أيضا فى أية اخرى "والله جعل لكم من انفسكم أزواجا وجعل لكم من أزواجكم بنين وحفدة ورزقاكم من الطيبات أفبالباطل يؤمنون وبنعمة الله هم يكفرون  " 

“And Sheikh Jamal al-Din al-Sijistani, one of the Hanafi imams, said in the book (Muniyyatul Mufti), attributing him to the Sirajiyah fatwas: Marriage is not Zaiz (permissible) between humans,  jinns, and human beings of water due to the difference of gender for Allah the almighty’s saying “And one of His (Allah’s) Signs is that He created spouses for you from yourselves (From your genders) so that you can get peace with them. He created love and kindness among you. Surely there are Signs in this for those people who do think about it. ” (Ar-Rum-21) Allah the almighty also said in another Ayat: “And Allah created spouses for you from yourselves (From your genders) and He created for you children and grandchildren from your spouses. He provided you with pure things as sustenance. (After knowing all this), do they still believe in falsehood and deny Allah's grace (Rahmat)?” (An-Nahl-72).(Ref.-1)

Spiritual Treatment: ((رقى

               عن عوف بن مالك الأشجعى قال: كنا نرقى فى الجاهلية فقلنا يا رسول الله كيف ترى فى ذالك؟ فقال " اعرضوا على رقاكم لا بأس بالرقى ما لم يكن فيه شرك"                                                                                

“It was narrated by Malek Al-Ashjai’, who said: We used to do Ruqaya during Jaheliyah (The age of ignorance, or the age before the advent of Islam). Then we said: O, Allah’s Rasul, what do you see about that?  He (Sm.) said: “Present to me your Ruqaya. There is nothing wrong with a Ruqaya, in which there is no Shirk.”(Muslim, Hadith no-5732 -   باب لابأس بالرقى ما لم يكن فيه شرك – كتاب السلام)

What is Ar-Ruqaya (الرقى)?

الرقى (بضم الراء وفتح القاف) جمع رقية (بضم فسكون) والمراد ما كان بأسماء الأصنام والشياطين لا ما كان بالقرأن والأدعية ونحوها

Ruqaya (With Dammah on “Ra” and Fatha on “Qaf”) is the plural of Ruqyah (With Dammah on “Ra” and sukoon on “Qaf”), what was done in the names of idols and satans is meant by it, not what was done by the Qur’an and supplications(دعاء ), etc. (Ref.2)

Ibnu Hajar Al-Asqalani said:الرقى “ (Dummah with Ra) plural of Ruqya (رقي -Qaf with Sukoon). It

means- (التعويذ)    Amulet.” He also said: لكن يحتمل ان يقال إن الرقى أخص من التعوذ

“But the possibility is there that it may be said:   The Ruqaya is more special than seeking refuge”. وقال

 ابن التين: ألرقى بالمعوذات وغيرها من اسماء الله هو الطب الروحانى إذا كان على لسان الابرار من الخلق حصل الشفاء بإذن الله تعالى   

“And Ibnut Teen said: To do Raqaya by reciting Sura Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq, and Sura An-Nas and  with others from the names of Allah is spiritual medication when it happens with the tongue of the righteous people  among the creations, healing will take place by the permission of Allah the Almighty.” (Ref.3)

Shahabuddin Abul Abbas Ahmad Ibn Muhammad Ash-Shafei’ Al-Qustulani said:

ألرقى بضم الراء وفتح القاف مقصورا جمع رقية بسكون القاف أى التعويذ

“Ruqaya (Dammah with “Ra” and Fatah with “Qaf” as confined) is plural of Ruqya( Sukoon with Qaf) means Amulet.” (Ref.4)

So Ruqaya is a treatment, where a person recites Sura and  Ayat of the Qur’an or Dua of Hadith, then he blows his breath over the diseased person in an odd number of times-3, 5, or 7 times.

وقال النووى : ألرقى التى هى من كلام الكفار والرقى المجهولة والتى بغير العربية وما لايعرف معناها فهذه مذمومة لاحتمال أن معناها كفر أو قريب منه أو مكروه وأما الرقى بأيات القرأن وبالأذكار المعروفة فلا نهى فيه بل هو سنة

Nawawee said: “The Ruqyas that are from the words of Kafirs, and the unknown  Ruqyas which are not in Arabic, and their meaning is not understood are reprehensible,  for having the possibility of Kufr in their meaning, or close to Kufr, or disliked(مكروه). But Ruqyas with Ayat of the Qur’an and well-known Zikrs( ألاذكار), there is no prohibition in it, rather it is a Sunnah.”(Ref.5)

The rule for using amulets (التعويذ)  in Islam:

It is said in the book of Fatwa of Hanafi Mazhab- ولا بأس بتعليق التعويذ ولكن ينزعه عند الخلاء والقربان كذا فى الغرائب

“There is nothing wrong with hanging Amulet, but that should be taken off at the time of toilet and  Qurbani (Sacrificing animal for Allah), as described in the book named Al-Ghraib.”( Amulet written with the Ayats, Suras of the Qur’an and Dua from Hadith). (Ref.6)

Taking wages for spiritual treatment: 

Taking wages for Ruqya is allowed in Islam. It is reported by Ibn Abbas (R.) At the end of the Hadith Allah’Rasul (Sm.) said: إن أحق ما أخذتم عليه أجرا كتاب الله  Surely the most deserving thing on which you take wages is Allah's Kitab i-e The Quran. (Bukhari, Hadith no-5737, كتاب الطب, باب الشروط فى الرقية بفاتحة الكتاب)

وأجازها فى الرقية    

And he( Abu Hanifa Rah.) declared it(Taking wages ) permissible(جائز) in the Ruqyah. (Ref.7)
