Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
(may Allah be pleased with him), there are those who practice elective sorcery, such as stabbing, fire, and striking with hammers, and they appear in the media claiming to bring about miracles. How is this to be forbidden, and how is this matter to be confronted? It is obligatory to denounce this.
Answer:
And to prevent it from the media over which we have authority and capability. As for media over which we have no authority or capability, we prevent it from our lands; we prevent its entry into our lands. As for our media, we have authority over it, so we prevent it from displaying this thing. If something occurs, it is reported to the authorities, who denounce this thing and are asked to remove it. Yes.
