Question:
He says: Shaykh, in its final section, what is the difference between al-jibt and al-taghut?
Answer:
Al-jibt is sorcery, and al-taghut is Satan. This is the difference between them. Al-jibt is sorcery, as 'Umar ibn al-Khattab interpreted it, and al-taghut is Satan. It is derived from transgression, which is when a servant exceeds his limit regarding a worshipped object, a followed leader, or an obeyed authority, yes, in anything other than obedience to Allah, yes.
