Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: At one of the celebrations, I saw a man put a coin in his pocket and take it out of his sleeve, and put in a black pen and take it out white with a piece of paper on it. He said that this relies on quick movement, and this was at the celebration, as I mentioned.
Answer:
This is sorcery. This relies on sorcery, not on quick movement. It relies on sorcery. This is illusionist sorcery, the "qamarah." Do you know the "qamarah"? This is the "qamarah." This is illusionist sorcery, and it is invalid and the work of Satan.
