Distinguishing Between the Miracles of the Awliya and Satanic Supernatural Events

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: How can I distinguish between the karamah (a miracle granted to a righteous person) of the awliya (close friends of Allah) and satanic supernatural events?

Answer:
If the supernatural event that occurs through someone is from among the righteous, upright servants of Allah, then it is a karamah from Allah. If the one through whom the supernatural event occurs is an open sinner, a disbeliever, or one who associates partners with Allah, then it is from the supernatural events of Satan and not from the karamahs. Yes.
