The ruling on going to a sorceress to break a spell
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on a woman whose childbearing has been delayed for years? A woman indicated to her that this was due to a spell, and they said that she has a spell on her, so they directed her to a woman who breaks spells and removes bad things from her. What is the ruling on this woman going to that sorceress?
Answer:
It is not permissible to go to sorcerers to break a spell. Rather, a spell is treated with the prescribed ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and with permissible medicines. It is not treated with a spell like it, nor does one go to sorcerers to have them break it. Yes.
