The ruling on writing verses of the Qur'an, washing them, and bathing with their water for treatment

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In our country, some people write verses of the Qur'an on boards, then wash them, and then tell the sick to rub their bodies with the water and bathe in it. Is this action permissible?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with it. This is part of ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation). One writes the Qur'an or the dhikr (remembrance of Allah) on a pure place, such as a plate, a board, or something else, then washes the writing, and the patient either drinks the water or bathes with it. There is nothing wrong with it. This is part of ruqyah.
