What is the cure for sorcery?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I am a married woman, and my family life was very happy in the beginning. After a period of time, this situation changed. I swear to you, O Shaykh, that Allah is a witness over me from above seven heavens that I sought to annoy my husband, but to no avail. During this period, I suffered from many fainting spells, fatigue, and pain in my heart and body. I went to many doctors and clinics, but everyone said there was nothing wrong. When I would faint and my family would recite the Qur'an over me, I would be afraid in this state and return to how I was before. After a while, a jinn that appeared and spoke from within me talked about people who had not treated me badly, to the extent that many people testify to their good character. I also had very disturbing dreams. So what should I do, O Shaykh? And what is your advice to me?

Answer:
Hold on to the remembrance of Allah, increase in supplication, and recite the Qur'an. There is no harm in going to a man who is trustworthy in his creed and religion to have him recite over you, provided you maintain your covering and seclusion from him. He should recite over you, perhaps Allah will remove from you what has befallen you, with patience and counting on the reward. Increase in the remembrance of Allah. If you find among the Muslims someone who is trustworthy and has sound creed, and you attend to him and he recites from the Qur'an over you while adhering to the hijab, this is one of the causes of healing, by the permission of Allah. Yes. There must be no seclusion; you do not seclude yourself with the one who recites over you. Rather, a mahram should be present with you. Yes.
