In the Name of Beloved, the Compassionate, the Merciful

Dear All,

Sufi healing has been practiced discreetly for many centuries. Some have mentioned that Prophet Muhammad practiced healing, which seems highly likely. Anyhow, as one who tries to adheres to Islam, one should be careful with the practice of Reiki, not because it’s “against Islam”, but simply because of the different energy levels. However, there are some Muslims who feel more comfortable with a modality called Sufi Reiki. In the west its called Sufi Reiki, in the east its called Sufi Saints Healing. If you would like to experience Sufi Reiki, please visit http://www.sufireiki.org.

Thank you.

Dear muslims, some of the teachings of Reiki conflict basic islamic beliefs and it is therefore forbidden.

For e.g. the website http://www.reiki.org/reikipractice/practicehomepage.html reads “there are higher sources of help you can call on. Angels, beings of light, and reiki spirit guides as well as your own enlightened self are available to help you.”

I am a muslim. I have been practising reiki since 1994. I got it from India.
from master Martin Nazarette. I read his book. I contacted him and took lesson. But my creed made me not want to use symbols. One day he phoned me and wanted to attune me with reiki II. He sent me a booklet for it. I didn’t like to use symbols I found it not proper; my heart just couldn’t accept the symbols or mantras. Since 1994 I used to treat many people with the energy. I never accepted any pay. If they insisted me to accept it I gave it to the first needy person. My heart never want to accept the money given. Anyway, one day one of my friends wanted a reiki III. I phoned Martin, He sent it to my friend and me together. There are exercise which go with No III reiki but I never practised them. I went for piligrimage this year and many people who were lodging with me were sick and I treated them and attuned them by just intending saying “By the Will of Allah you have the healing energy just like me” I checked the enery flow and indeed it was flowing in their palms. Then I asked some to pass it to their friends there and then and they also felt the flow of energy through their palms. So they started treating each other and was indeed successful. So they got Reiki I, II and III in a second just by intention. They also tried distant healing and it worked too. So you see Allah is the only One Who knows what you converse in your mind or heart so He hears and it works. Nowadays I am very cool. I never want to look at symbols and chant mantras which i never did when I treated people. I read Quran short suras.

1.      Islamic reiki
The biggest problem or issues that busy the mind of Muslims when they accept the reiki is that why we must use of Indian, Sanskrit and Japanese names and symbols.
And at this part where are the place of names and says of GOD in Islam and how we can use of them in care and attention or meditation.
Mr Babak sorkhpour after 2 years research and meditation or attention and experiment of different methods and styles, can find the key of this secret and with help of new method of Islamic reiki that inspiration to him and after going the different attunements on the different masters and students , for the first time in the world , he introduce it to the health festival of Malaysia.
The key points of this method:
1.      Use of God’s says instead of reiki symbols.
2.      Most effect is on the third eye’s canal (chakra).
3.      It does not need to hard excursive.
4.      Guide master and the main attune is Mohammad Excellency (profit).
5.      Most relation is with servant around
6.      It can care and we can send it to far away or the far point.
7.      Never or at all if has not any dependence to master or method or religion.
8.      It is only a very simple technique.
9.      It does not need to draw symbol.
10. It increases the relation immediately.
11. The material of its energy is very light .
12. The teaching of it , is very simple and in the lower most time.

I am also a muslim and have been doing energy healing or reiki on myself and children . I was really not well several years ago and began taking natural supliments, acupuncture…..etc….my mother a former nurse, gave me bookson energy healing and i know that it works has been very healing for my family,friends, and myself.!You just feel better and more spiritually connected.

I know that it works and is very powerful. I also know that it helps those who are in pain or emotionally upsett. I have personally as a devoted muslim not found anything against Islam in Reiki. I do not use the symbols any longer i just make dua and recite healing verses.

The main question is ….what would our Holy Prophet Mohammed pbuh would have advized about this type of healing work? I then ventured into studying books on Sufism during my research on Reiki and the Spriitual side of Islam does obtain wisdom and knowledge about energy healing and can quite in depth.

I hope to meet with other Muslims who practice energy healing as i Currently know mostly Christians right now who practice this.

I am a muslim and i would like to point two things as reiki appears to have some sort of semblance to the practice in Islam
1The holy Quran says ALLAH ( THE MUSLIM GOD)is NOOR ( LIGHT ) of the skies and the earth ( or the universe ) and we in reiki beleive the reiki is a universal force .
2.The concept of DUA after each prayer by raising both hands up to face level and then rubbing the same on face .Are we not making effort to concentrate the BARAKA on the most sensetive orgon as we have adopted a similar method in reiki
Ipersonally beleive that there is need to analyse the reiki and relegious faiths without any bias and prejuidce and must make effort to shun claims of calling reiki non -releigious .There is all hopes of findind semblance .

Hi again, Duane!
It just so happens that I have recently been reading about mystical Islam and healing practices and came across an interesting Islamic interpretation of Reiki here:
http://herbnites.tripod.com/islamicreiki/
There do appear to be some parallels between Reiki, Ki and Chakras and Qudra, Baraka and Lata’if.
Ai to Hikari
