Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, sorcery and witchcraft have become widespread in our country because they have not found anyone to watch out for them. What is our obligation to combat this problem?
Answer:
Your obligation is to give advice, call people to the truth, and explain things to them. Remind the people, for this is not permissible; it is kufr (disbelief) and shirk (associating partners with Allah). It is not permissible. Teach them tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and teach them the creed bit by bit until they learn and abandon these things. As for remaining silent, that is not permissible for you. Yes.
