Question:
What is the ruling on a student of knowledge reading books on sorcery in order to warn against them?

Answer:
We do not advise him to do so. He should not read them so that he is not affected by them or afflicted in his mind, such that he is plagued by whispers. He should stay away from them. May Allah keep us safe from them.
