DEVELOPMENT OF SYAR'IYYAH RUQYAH IN TREATMENT DISEASES FROM THE TIME OF THE PROPHET TO THE CONTEMPORARY ERA

Novi Pitria — 2025-01-30

ABSTRAK

Pada saat ini terdapat beberapa pihak yang melakukan ruqyah yang tidak sesuai dengan ajaran islam yang disebut ruqyah syirkiyyah, banyak masyarakat yang belum bisa membedakan ruqyah syar’iyyah dengan suqyah syirkiyyah, hal seperti ini sudah terjadi sebelum pada zaman Nabi Muhammad SAW yaitu zaman arab jahiliyah. Kemudian ruqyah tersebut di rubah menjadi ruqyah syar’iyyah pada zaman Nabi Muhammad SAW. Ruqyah syirkiyyah berbeda dengan ruqyah syar’iyyah yang dianjurkan oleh Nabi Muhammad SAW. Ruqyah syar’iyyah adalah ruqyah yang menggunakan bacaan ayat-ayat Al-Quran sebagai sumbernya untuk mengobati berbagai penyakit. Sedangkan ruqyah syirkiyyah menggunakan bacaan berupa mantra-mantra dari leluhur yang entah asalnya darimana. Selain itu, hukum antara keduanya juga berbeda, dimana pada ruqyah syar’iyyah hukumnya adalah mubah, sedangkan pada ruqyah syirkiyyah hukumnya adalah haram. Dalam penerapannya, ruqyah syar’iyyah dapat dilakuan secara mandiri dengan membaca ayat-ayat ruqyah yang terdapat dalam Al-Quran dan dapat dilakukan dengan bantuan orang lain

ABSTRACT

At this time, there are several parties who perform ruqyah not in accordance with Islamic teachings, called ruqyah syirkiyyah. Many people cannot yet differentiate between ruqyah syar'iyyah and ruqyah syirkiyyah. Such incidents occurred before the time of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), during the era of ignorant Arabs. Then, ruqyah was transformed into ruqyah syar'iyyah during the time of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Ruqyah syirkiyyah is different from ruqyah syar'iyyah which was recommended by the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Ruqyah syar'iyyah uses Quranic verses for treating various diseases, while syirkiyyah ruqyah uses ancestral mantras without clear origins. Moreover, the laws governing the two are different: ruqyah syar'iyyah is permissible, whereas ruqyah syirkiyyah is forbidden. In practice, ruqyah syar'iyyah can be performed independently by reciting Quranic verses and with assistance from people if needed

Indonesia secara global menempati urutan kedua 40,8% dengan angka kejadian gastrointestinal di Asia setelah India 43%. Buah tin atau dalam bahasa latin disebut juga Ficus carica merupakan sejenis buah yang berasal dari Asia Barat yang sangat terkenal dalam dunia Islam. Hal ini dikarenakan buah tin disebut oleh Allah SWT dalam firman Allah SWT dalam Al-Quran pada surat At-Tin yaitu surat ke-95.

Flavonoid menunjukkan sejumlah sifat farmakologis di area GIT, bertindak sebagai agen antisekresi, sitoprotektif, dan antioksidan. Sifat antioksidan senyawa fenolik telah dipelajari secara luas, namun menjadi jelas bahwa mekanisme kerjanya melampaui modulasi stres oksidatif. Senyawa flavonoid juga telah dilaporkan memiliki peran yang bermanfaat dalam tukak lambung, karena flavonoid diduga merangsang pembentukan PGE 2. Semua bagian dari tanaman tin dapat dimanfaatkan dalam pengobatan herbal dan telah terbukti khasiatnya dalam menangani berbagai masalah. Buah tin dapat dikonsumsi segar dan kering oleh manusia.

Jabir bin Abdullah reported: I heard the Prophet (PBUH) saying, "If there is any healing in your medicines, then it is in cupping, a gulp of honey, or branding with fire (cauterization) that suits the ailment, but I don't like to be (cauterized) branded with fire."
