Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: If a person is afflicted with sorcery, is it permissible for him to break this sorcery with similar sorcery?
Answer:
It is not broken by the Qur'an, the lawful ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), and permissible medicines; this is what is used to remove sorcery. They call this the nashrah. The nashrah is done with the Qur'an, with supplications, and with permissible medicines. Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab (may Allah have mercy on him) says in the book al-Tawhid: "The Chapter on What Came Regarding the Nashrah." Refer to the commentary on it. Yes.
