Is it permissible to use sorcery to remove it?

Question:
Is it permissible to use sorcery to remove it from the one who has been bewitched? And what is the ruling on those who permit this?

Answer:
It is not permissible to use sorcery, neither initially nor for the purpose of treatment. It is not permissible to use sorcery for the sake of treatment or to break a spell. This is not permissible because this is using sorcery, and it is approving the work of the sorcerer and endorsing it among the Muslims. It is not permissible, and the one who said this was in error. Some scholars have said this, some scholars have said this in the past and in the present, but this is an error.
