Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the sorcerer to be disciplined or killed?
Answer:
It is known that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) left him and did not kill him, and perhaps this was for the sake of reconciliation and calling to Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); and because he was a famous Jew.
As for if a Muslim does it, he is killed, for sorcery is apostasy from Islam, and it does not occur except by seeking the aid of the jinn, so the sorcerer is killed as 'Umar did.
