The ruling on writing one of the names of Allah in a vessel and then having a patient drink it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This is Ahmad Yahya from Jazan. He says: What is your honorable opinion regarding one who writes one of the names of Allah the Exalted in a vessel, and then the patient drinks it and repeats it a specific number of times, such as fifty-two times? Is this an innovation (bid'ah)? And is this a lawful ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation)?
Answer:
As for writing verses and supplications in a vessel or on paper with pure ink and in a pure place, and then washing it and drinking it, or the patient drinking it, there is nothing wrong with this. The Salaf (the earliest generations) did this, and this falls under lawful ruqyah. As for repeating one name of Allah, there is no evidence for this.
