Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. There are people who perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) for others who write the ruqyah from verses in saffron, put it in packets, and then sell it in shops. Is this action permissible in the Shari'ah?
Answer:
Yes. Writing the Qur'an in plates or in pure vessels or on paper, then dissolving it in water and drinking it, is from the permissible ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation). The Imams, such as Imam Ahmad and Ibn al-Qayyim and others, have granted a dispensation for this. Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned this in the chapter on the Hereafter in his book on medicine, in the chapter on ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation). Yes. There is no harm in it, provided that nothing other than the Qur'anic verses is written, and that no unknown substances are added to it. Yes.
