The ruling on going to a sorcerer to break a spell

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on going to a sorcerer to have him remove the sorcery that was performed on him? The person who was bewitched performed ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) on himself for a long time, but he did not recover from his sorcery?

Answer:
Glory be to Allah. This questioner was present for the lesson. He asks: What is the ruling on going to a sorcerer to have him remove the sorcery? Where did our lesson go from beginning to end? He says: No, one does not go to the sorcerer. It is haram (forbidden) and shirk (associating partners with Allah) with Allah the Exalted. Yes.
