The answer

It is not permissible to obtain a medical certificate without an examination, because that is considered prohibited deception and lying. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever deceives is not of me."

Whoever does this must repent to Allah Almighty. The money earned from this action is not lawful, because it is wages for a prohibited deception, and one must spend it on charitable and good causes to rid oneself of it.
