Taking money to give to sorcerers for the treatment of a sick person and not giving it to them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 18839 )
Q 2: I have a sister who fell ill with a condition called nerves in 1975, and the doctor discharged her from the hospital. So we turned to sorcerers and performed the zarda ritual for her. Our neighbor came to that zarda and said to these sorcerers: If my daughter is cured, I have a promise and a sum of money for you. After a long time, she came to me and gave me a sum of money, asking me to give that amount to these sorcerers , but I did not do so because they had dispersed. That is the first point. Second: I did not make the effort to deliver that amount. Now I ask: What is the solution?
A 2: It is obligatory for you to return the aforementioned amount to the person who paid it to you or to his heirs, and do not pay it to the aforementioned sorcerer; because it is not permissible for him. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
