Treatment of Hepatitis Virus with a Pigeon

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, one of the brothers mentioned to me a treatment for hepatitis virus, and I want to know its ruling. It is that he brings a pigeon, removes the feathers from the pigeon's tail, then places its tail on his navel, and the tail absorbs the virus, after which the pigeon dies. Is such a treatment permissible in the Shari'ah?

Answer:
This is sorcery, and it is not permissible. One should not seek treatment through such matters. Yes.
