Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: How can I distinguish between what is called a karamah (a miracle granted to a righteous person) and the supernatural acts performed by some sorcerers?
Answer:
If supernatural acts occur through the hand of a righteous man, they are a karamah. If they occur through the hand of a corrupt person, they are not a karamah, but rather a means of luring him into destruction. Yes.
