Summary

The Perlis Fatwa Committee sets guidelines requiring that incantations be free from anything that damages faith, such as acts of shirk and kufr. Incantations are permitted using Quranic verses, the names and attributes of Allah, supplications taught in the sunnah, or other recitations not contrary to Islam, with the belief that healing comes from Allah. The practitioner must also observe limits between the sexes and on exposing the aurah, avoid prohibited materials, and refrain from uncertain (gharar) fees, baseless accusations, and disclosing a patient's faults without need.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Berjampi dengan ayat al-Quran, atau nama dan sifat Allah SWT, atau berjampi dengan doa yang diajar di dalam sunnah atau dengan apa-apa bacaan dan perbuatan yang tidak bercanggah dengan ajaran Islam.
