Is it possible to interpret the noble verse, "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring to] wash with, cool and a drink," as indicating that exercise has a virtue in healing, and does washing with cold water have a virtue in undoing sorcery or the evil eye, especially since Ayyub (peace be upon him) said, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment"?

Sport is beneficial for the body and health, but using the verse “Strike [the ground] with your foot” as evidence for its permissibility is incorrect. The word “running” (اركض) in the verse means striking the ground with the foot, not jogging or walking, and scholars of the past and present are in agreement on this interpretation. As for washing with cold water, it can be beneficial in treating fever and invigorating the body, and there are prophetic traditions that support this.
