What is the ruling on drinking water in which papers written with saffron have been dissolved, after they were dipped in water containing saffron and recited over?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible to sell papers dipped in saffron water on which Quranic verses are written with the intention of healing, because it is a fraudulent act to unlawfully consume people's wealth. This differs from the permissible Ruqyah (Islamic incantation) where verses are written, then washed, and the water is drunk.
