The Reality of Energy Healing: Between Contemporary Deception and Pagan Practices

What is promoted today under the name of "Energy Healing" requires a careful, reflective pause before following its claims. The matter transcends a mere search for "positive energy" or practicing passing "meditation"; rather, it is an integrated system that may be used as a means to pass concepts that contradict explicit belief.

These practices have become a tool cleverly exploited by the devils among men and jinn, where they are wrapped in Sharia-compliant terminology to convince Muslims of their legitimacy, including:

• Attempting to link the concept of "chakras" to Quranic texts.

• Interpreting the concept of cosmic "energy" through a tenuous religious bond.

• Presenting the "Law of Attraction" as if it were an authentic Islamic concept.

• Applying the term "contemplation" to Buddhist and deviant "meditation" practices.

This method of deception is not new; it is an extension of an ancient path taken by devils since Babylonian sorcery, as God Almighty warned us in His Holy Book:

They followed what the devils gave out in the reign of Solomon. Solomon did not disbelieve, but the devils disbelieved, teaching men magic.

Surah Al-Baqarah, Verse 102

The essence of energy healing practices often relies on the suspension of consciousness or entering mental states that open the door to satanic whispers. While Islam urges vigilance and awareness, we find that practices such as Yoga or ritualistic meditation may weaken the psychological and intellectual immunity of the Muslim, making them vulnerable to adopting deviant ideas under the supervision of those who call themselves "bio-energy healers," who in reality perform roles no different in essence from ancient sorcery, albeit with a shiny modern facade.

Therefore, it is incumbent upon the Muslim to be cautious and protect their mind and creed from everything that opens the doors of evil and fitnah, and to hold fast to the Two Revelations in seeking healing and tranquility.
