The ruling on the one who says he does not believe in the evil eye or in sorcery

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: What is your view, Honorable Shaykh, on the statement of the one who says that he does not believe in the evil eye or in sorcery?

Answer:
Yes. He does not believe in the evil eye or in sorcery. This is a denial of the texts from the Qur'an and the Sunnah that indicate the existence of the evil eye, being struck by the evil eye, and the existence of sorcery. If he says, "I do not believe in the evil eye; there is no evil eye and no sorcery," this is a denial of the evidence, unless he is ignorant, in which case he must learn. But if he knows the texts and is aware of them, then he is in great danger, for he is contradicting the texts and denying what the authentic texts indicate.
