Disposing of sorcery by burning or tearing it up
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If I find sorcery, should I dispose of it by burning or tearing it? And should I recite the Qur'an over it to nullify it?
The Shaykh:
If you find sorcery, destroy it, either by burning it with fire or by tearing it up. The important thing is that you do not keep it; you must destroy it by any means, whether burning or tearing.
The questioner:
And do you recite the Qur'an over it?
The Shaykh:
No, that has not been reported. Destroying it is sufficient. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
If you destroy it, its effect is nullified, by the permission of Allah. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
Sorcery is treated with ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), and it is treated by destroying the sorcery if it is found. Yes.
