The ruling on going to a sorcerer to break a spell

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, my wife was afflicted with an illness, and then, praise be to Allah, she was struck by a severe illness. After extensive treatment, I took her to many psychiatrists. Before that, we performed ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) on her many times, but when the recitation is intense, Satan speaks through her mouth. After that, one of the brothers said that it is permissible to go to someone who can break this spell, and I actually went. So, is there any sin on me?

Answer:
Do I know who you went to? If it was a sorcerer, then there is something on you, and this is not permissible. If you went to a sorcerer, this is not permissible. But if you went to someone who performs ruqyah with the Qur'an and permissible supplications, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
