The ruling on not reporting a sorcerer out of fear of his sorcery
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I ask Allah to do you good. This questioner from Saudi Arabia says: What is the ruling on someone who knows of a sorcerer but does not report him out of fear that the sorcerer will cast a spell on him?
The Shaykh:
He must fear Allah and not fear the sorcerer. He should forbid what is wrong and not leave off forbidding what is wrong out of fear of a created being. If he fears Allah, then Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will protect him and guard him. But if he fears the sorcerer, Allah will empower the sorcerer against him. If you leave him because you are afraid he will cast a spell on you, Allah will empower him against you and he will cast a spell on you, because you fear the created being and do not fear the Creator. Yes.
The presenter:
We thank our brothers in Riyadh, and we pause for the adhan, then we will return to the questions of the audience. Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah.
The Shaykh:
