Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: The author of Fath al-Majid transmitted, and he said: Ibn Battal mentioned in his book, citing Wahb ibn Munabbih, that one takes seven green sidr leaves, grinds them between two stones, then beats them with water, and recites in it the Verse of the Throne and the Qawaqil, then drinks three gulps from it, then performs ghusl with it, and whatever is afflicting him goes away. It is good for a man if he is prevented from his wife. End of quote. The question, Honorable Shaykh: Is it necessary to grind them between two stones, or is it sufficient to beat them with water?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the author of Fath al-Majid mentioned this, and Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) issues a fatwa based on it, so there is no harm in it, if Allah wills. One grinds it between two stones or in any means that does not contradict, there is no harm. The important thing is that it dissolves, it dissolves the sidr. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh, this questioner.

The Shaykh:
The mention of the two stones is by way of example, not by way of restriction. Yes.
