What is the Shari'ah remedy for sorcery?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : This female caller, A.A.M. from Jordan, says: "O honorable Shaykh, what is the Shari'ah remedy for sorcery? May Allah reward you."

The Shaykh : The Shari'ah remedy for sorcery is ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) with the Book of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), by reciting over the afflicted person
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak قل أعوذ برب الفلق
[Al-Falaq 113:1]
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind, قل أعوذ برب الناس
[An-Nas 114:1]
, as well as the verses that state that Allah the Exalted nullifies sorcery, such as
What you have brought is [only] magic. Indeed, Allah will expose its worthlessness. Indeed, Allah does not amend the work of corrupters. ما جِئتُم بِهِ السِّحرُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَيُبطِلُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُصلِحُ عَمَلَ المُفسِدينَ
[Yunus 10:81]
and His saying
and the magician will not succeed wherever he is." وَلا يُفلِحُ السّاحِرُ حَيثُ أَتى
[Taha 20:69]
. Also, the supplications that came in the Sunnah for seeking healing from illness. This is if it is not possible to locate the place of the sorcery. If it is possible, then once it is located, it is dismantled. We ask Allah for safety. Yes.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.
