The Ruling on Treating Sorcery with Sorcery
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Or he finds what I think is shirk (associating partners with Allah) with shirk.
Answer:
It is not permissible; treating sorcery with sorcery is not permissible. Allah has not made our healing in what He has forbidden upon us. Sorcery is treated with the Qur'an and permissible medicines. Whatever Allah has sent down, He has sent down a healing for it, so it is treated with what Allah has prescribed. As for what Allah has forbidden, it is not permissible to treat with it. And the most severe of the forbidden things, along with shirk, is sorcery, may Allah protect us from it.
