What is the ruling on going to sorcerers to break a spell?

Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: A man has been subjected to sorcery regarding his wife, meaning he is bound away from her. Does he go to the fortune-tellers to break this sorcery, or what does he do?

Answer:
This is an issue they call breaking the sorcery. Is it permissible to break the sorcery with sorcery like it? This is called al-nashrah, which is removing the sorcery from the one who was bewitched. It is not permissible to remove the sorcery with sorcery like it, and it is not permissible to go to the sorcerer. However, the sorcery is treated with permissible medicines and with the Shari'ah-prescribed ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) from the Qur'an, the Sunnah, and the Shari'ah-prescribed supplications, with faith and certainty. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) is near and responsive. So he does not go to the sorcerers, nor is he treated by them, nor is the sorcery removed by them. The sorcery is not removed except by a sorcerer; this is not permissible.
