Question:
What is the ruling on watching the works of sorcerers?
Answer:
It is not permissible to do this. One should condemn it and explain its ruling to them. Some of them show people... such as chickens, birds, pigeons, and sparrows, saying, "This is from my mouth, from my stomach." It is all deception of the people.
Q: What is the ruling on attending them?
A: Attending them for the purpose of condemnation.
Q: For the purpose of enjoyment?
A: It is not permissible to do this, because this is what is wrong, except for the purpose of knowing the truth so that it can be reported.
