The patient visualizing the `A'in during Ruqyah

Q 2: Is it correct that a sick person can visualize the `A'in (one who casts an evil eye) as a result of Qur’an being recited over him, or the person who does the Ruqyah (reciting Qur'an and saying supplications over the sick seeking healing) asking his Qarin (a personal Jinn companion for humans) to show the sick person the one who cast an evil eye on him?

A: The claim that the sick person can visualize the one who cast an eye on him while the Qur’an is being recited over him, or the reciter's telling him to do so is a devilish action and is not permitted, because it denotes seeking the help of Satan. The jinn is the one who makes the patient visualize the person who afflicted him with the evil eye, and this is Haram (prohibited), because it entails seeking the help of Satan, and this could cause enmity, fear and terror. This falls under the Ayah (Qur'anic verse), ‘And verily, there were men among mankind who took shelter with the males among the jinn, but they (jinn) increased them (mankind) in sin and transgression.
