Why is it not permissible to break sorcery with sorcery?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, whoever says that it is permissible to break sorcery with sorcery, that necessitates learning sorcery. It is not hidden from you what harm and negative consequences follow from it.

Answer:
We said this: If we allow sorcerers to practice sorcery for the sake of treatment, it means we have allowed the spread of sorcery in society. Even though treatment is not limited to sorcery. There is permissible treatment. And praise be to Allah. Allah has not sent down a disease without sending down a cure for it. So we leave the forbidden treatment for the permissible treatment. In it is good and benefit. And actions are judged by intentions and the default ruling. If we rely on Allah, entrust our affairs to Allah, and do the beneficial cause, then Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) is near and responsive. Yes.
