Is it permissible to treat and cure sorcery with similar sorcery?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible to treat and cure sorcery with similar sorcery?

Answer:
No. We are not from the one who performs sorcery or the one who is subjected to sorcery. It is not permissible to treat with sorcery; it is forbidden. Sorcery is not removed except by a sorcerer, so this is not permissible. Sorcery is treated with permissible means, which is called al-nashrah. The chapter on al-nashrah is in the book Tawhid. Look at it. It is treated only with dhikr, the Qur'an, and permissible medicines known by specialists.
