Try this:

$(function(){ // start of doc ready.
   $(".faq_title").click(function(e){
      e.preventDefault();  // stops the jump when an anchor clicked.
      var title = $(this).text(); // anchors do have text not values.

      $.ajax({
        url: 'faq/get_faq_data',
        data: {'title': title}, // change this to send js object
        type: "post",
        success: function(data){
           //document.write(data); just do not use document.write
           console.log(data);
        }
      });
   });
}); // end of doc ready

The issue as i see is this var title = $(this).val(); as your selector $(".faq_title") is an anchor and anchors have text not values. So i suggested you to use .text() instead of .val().
