Question:
Also, his other question, may Allah preserve you, he says: As for me, if it becomes necessary for a Muslim to go to sorcerers, what is the ruling on that?
Answer:
It is not permissible for him to go to sorcerers, and it is not necessary. Is the Muslim in a state of well-being such that he does not go to sorcerers? Rather, sorcery is treated with permissible medicines, ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), and recitation of the Qur'an, and it is removed by the permission of Allah. Yes.
