Summary
Quran therapy means seeking recovery from illness by using the Quran, and it is much like permissible ruqyah. The difference is that the patient recites it personally instead of looking for someone else to recite over him. It is permissible as long as it involves nothing of shirk, since the Quran is a cure and a source of calm for the heart. The fatwa recommends correcting one's recitation and trying to understand the verses used.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, harus dan tidak mengapa untuk berterapi dengan al-Quran kerana ia adalah salah satu cara penyembuhan dan juga penyebab tenangnya hati.
