The Ruling on Unweaving Sorcery with Sorcery and Seeking the Aid of Jinn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: Is there any evidence regarding unweaving sorcery with sorcery and seeking the aid of Muslim jinn in treating the sorcery-affected and the envious, and benefiting from them in news regarding wrongdoings or crimes?
Answer:
It is not permissible to seek the aid of jinn, nor to seek the aid of the dead or the absent; this is shirk (associating partners with Allah) with Allah the Exalted. Nor is sorcery unweaved with similar sorcery, because sorcery is haram (forbidden); practicing sorcery is haram, indeed it is kufr (disbelief). Sorcery is kufr, as stated in the hadith. One does not treat sorcery with kufr or with what is haram. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 3874Da'if (Al-Albani) And sorcery is kufr, and shirk with Allah the Exalted. Therefore, it is not permissible to unweave sorcery with sorcery. Rather, sorcery is unweaved by what has come in the Shari'ah, such as ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) with al-Fatihah and the two Mu'awwidhat (Surat al-Falaq and Surat al-Nas), and whatever is easy of the Qur'an and supplications. It is treated with these things.
Second, one searches for the sorcery, because it is hidden in a place. One searches for it, burns it, and destroys it. By that, healing is achieved by the permission of Allah. Yes.
