The Ruling on Reciting over Water and Selling It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on one who recites over water and sells it?
Answer:
It is better to leave it. If he recites for a specific person and gives it to him, that is fine. But selling it to people is not appropriate, and it has no basis. It is feared that it may be forbidden; it is not a good thing.
As for reciting for a specific person and giving it to him as a favor, there is nothing wrong with that, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited for Thabit ibn Qays and then poured it over him.
