Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on the one who went to one of those who treat with the Qur'an, and then it became clear to him that he is a false messiah, and he did not know what to do to make amends for that?
Answer:
It is obligatory for this person and for others to inquire about the man, to ask about him, about his religion, about his creed, and about his dealings with people. One should not go to an unknown person; this is a great error. But if one is afflicted and falls into the hands of a superstitious healer or a sorcerer, a sorcerer-healer, and it becomes clear to him that he is such, then he must repent to Allah the Exalted. He must repent and seek forgiveness, and not return to such a thing. He must also report this sorcerer and this false messiah. He must report him to the authorities so that they can take action against him, and he must warn people against him as well. Yes.
