The Difference Between Sorcery, a Miracle Granted to a Righteous Person, and a Prophetic Miracle

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In his final question, he asks: What is the difference between sorcery, a miracle granted to a righteous person, and a prophetic miracle?

Answer:
The difference between sorcery, a miracle granted to a righteous person, and a prophetic miracle is that sorcery is the work of Satan. As for the miracle granted to a righteous person and the prophetic miracle, the former is for the close friend of Allah and the latter is for the Prophet. These are the acts of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and they do not occur except through the hand of a righteous servant who is upright in obedience to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). As for what occurs through the hand of an open sinner or a disbeliever, that falls under the category of Satanic deeds and is a form of being lured into sin, refuge is sought in Allah. Yes.
