Ruling on writing some Qur'anic verses and then washing them and drinking the water
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The reality is that people ask about something close to this, saying: Is writing the Qur'an on a board and drinking it, or rubbing it on oneself, prescribed or is it a religious innovation? This practice is common in our lands.
Answer:
There is no harm in that. It is permissible to write verses or supplications on a board or paper with saffron, then wash them and drink the water. The scholars did this, and the scholars of verification permitted it. There is no harm in that. However, it is better than that to recite it over oneself, or for someone else to recite it over him and blow on him, or to recite it over water and drink it. This is better than writing it. And Allah knows best. Yes.
