Ruling on writing on boards and then wiping them off and drinking the water as medicine

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Some people, when they fall ill, write on boards and then wipe them off and drink the water as medicine. Is there any evidence or basis for this?
There is nothing wrong with that.Meaning: There is no blame on a person for writing a portion of the Qur'an, then washing it with water and drinking the water; for this has been reported from some of the Salaf.And it is likely included in the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And this is a Book which We have sent down, blessedوَهَذَا كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ مُبَارَكٌ
[Al-An'am: 92] So it is part of its blessing.And it is included in the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And We send down of the Qur'an that which is healing and mercy for the believersوَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا هُوَ شِفَاءٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
[Al-Isra: 82] So he mentioned healing without restricting it to spiritual healing.Just as the Qur'an is spiritual healing, as He the Exalted said:
O mankind, there has to come to you instruction from your Lord and healing for what is in the breasts and guidance and mercy for the believers.يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَتْكُمْ مَوْعِظَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَشِفَاءٌ لِمَا فِي الصُّدُورِ وَهُدىً وَرَحْمَةٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
[Yunus: 57] .
