therapy

Dear scholars, As-Salamu `alaykum. A TV program hosted a specialist in the field of energy therapy. In the program, the specialist said that energy therapy is a Japanese exercise called (Reiki Jin-Kei-Do). According to her, it is not a new science, as it is practiced in Islam under the name of ruqyah, which can be considered a variety of energy therapy. The concept of energy therapy revolves around treating the electromagnetic field of the body. She also gave the address of a Web site that gives more information on this. How do you view this type of treatment? And what is the Islamic ruling on it? Jazakum Allah khayran.

assalamu alaykum Is there a hadith of the prophet(PBUH)praising those who do not use cautery as a therapy?are muslims advised not to use electro cautery in the treatment of some viral skin diseases for instance?

As-salamu `alaykum. With the rapid advancement in science, and the appearance of genetic engineering, I would like to know the Islamic ruling concerning gene therapy. Can this kind of therapy be used to treat or even control to a relative extent the future progeny? Jazakum Allahu Khayran.

Scholars of Islam, As-Salaam `Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh. I’d like to know the Islamic stance on massage therapy.
