Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I ask Allah for your sake, Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on one who says that sorcery was abolished during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?
Answer:
How does he know? How does he know that it was abolished in his time, when these sorcerers are present and this affliction is present? This means it came down after it was abolished. He says, "This is not sorcery." The problem is this: Yes, sorcery still exists. This is a matter of trial and test for creation. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
