Assalam alaikum,

I am a 27-year-old unmarried girl. When I make ruqya (a healing prayer) for myself, every time I feel cold, my body trembles and I have an intense pain in my head. I yawn a lot, and after finishing the ruqya, I feel very tired - like I failed - and I want to sleep. I don’t know what to do.

I would like some advice; may Allah reward you and bless you.

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful,

All praise is due to Allah, and may peace and blessing be upon the Messenger of Allah, upon his household, his companions and those who have followed him. To proceed:

I ask Allah, by His Most Beautiful Names and Glorious Attributes, to wipe over you with His Curative Right Hand and to combine for you reward [for your patience] and healing. I think you should discuss these symptoms with someone known for specializing in treatment with the Qur’an from among the people of religion and upstanding reputation; perhaps Allah will bring you benefit thereby, insha’Allah.

And Allah Almighty is the Most High, and He knows best.
