The Detail on the Issue of Removing Sorcery from the Sorcered

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Regarding removing sorcery from the sorcered out of necessity?
Removing sorcery from the sorcered is permissible, and there is no doubt in that, but only with permissible supplications, with the Qur'an, and with permissible medicines. As for undoing sorcery with sorcery, this is a point of disagreement among the scholars: some of them permitted it out of necessity, and some of them prohibited it. There is no doubt that permitting it leads to an increase in sorcerers; because the one who undoes it does not undo it except with a great deal of money, so the opinion of permissibility leads to sorcery being made a trade, and its learning becomes widespread. Also, it is possible that the sorcerer and the one who undoes it agree, and the sorcerer says: that he will cast the spell, and the other will undo it, and the fee is between them. Is this possible? It is possible.As the common people say: The condition is forty for us, twenty for you and twenty for them. Therefore, we see that it should be prohibited absolutely. If a person is afflicted with this, let him be patient, let him seek reward from Allah, and let him know that everything has an end, and every condition changes. If he is afflicted and suffers, or his family suffers with him, it is an expiation for their sins, and with seeking reward, it is an increase in their reward and their ranks. If a man is pricked by a thorn, it is expiated for him by it, and with seeking reward, he has a reward. So what can be said about this great affliction?

Summary: If removing sorcery is done with the Qur'an, permissible supplications, and permissible medicines, then it is permissible and there is no doubt in it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was recited over when he was sorcered with the two chapters of protection (Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of the Daybreak) and (Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind), and his sorcery was removed, praise be to Allah.And as for if it is with another sorcery, I told you: The scholars differ on this; some of them permitted it in cases of extreme necessity, and some of them prohibited it.And I told you: Permitting it leads to harms.
