The Ruling on Cupping as a Treatment for Sorcery

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you all. Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: I heard one of the sheikhs say that cupping is one of the treatments for sorcery, and I was unable to clarify more details about this topic. Is this statement correct? And how is that done?

Answer:
This is not correct. Cupping is not a treatment for sorcery, and I do not know of anyone who said this. It will be in Paradise. As for sorcery, its treatment is through ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), the Sharia'ah-compliant kind, and reciting the verses that contain the perfection of trust, and using the permissible, pure medicines with which sorcery is treated, as mentioned by Shaykh 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) in Fath al-Majlis, in the chapter on what has come regarding the removal of sorcery, which you have read and heard.
