The condition of finding and destroying the sorcery for its removal
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some readers or some students of knowledge claim that sorcery cannot be removed from the one who has been bewitched except by obtaining the sorcery and destroying it. For this reason, it is necessary to go to a soothsayer to inform them of the location of the sorcery so that it can be destroyed. What is your opinion, Honorable Shaykh?
Answer:
This is a false statement, this is a false statement, and it is not to be relied upon. Sorcery is removed through ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), seeking refuge, medicines, and permissible supplications, even if the sorcery is not found. If the sorcery is found and destroyed, that is also part of the treatment. But if it is not found, the Shari'ah-prescribed ruqyah is sufficient. Whoever says that it cannot be removed unless the sorcery is found, that is a false statement, it is not correct. Yes.
