Ruling of Treating Sihr with Sihr (Witch-craft/Magic)


Imaam ‘Abdul ‘Azeez bin ‘Abdullaah Bin Baaz رحمه الله

Verily Sihr cannot be cured with Sihr. This is because Sihr can only be reached with worshiping the Shayaateen and calling upon them apart from Allaah and seeking nearness to them with worship. And Sihr is from the greatest of sins rather from the sins that is equal to Shirk. Therefore it is not permissible to cure Sihr with Sihr.
When the Prophet صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم was asked about an-Nushrah (treating Sihr with Sihr), he said:

هي من عمل الشيطان

This is from the actions of Shaytaan!

This is an-Nushra which was used in al-Jaahiliyyah, i.e. treating Sihr with Sihr. So it is not permissible to treat Sihr with Sihr. Rather it is obligated to treat it with another means from the Ruqyah Shar’iyyah and the Shar’ee medicines as it is mentioned by the Ahlul ‘Ilm. It is not permissible ever to treat with sihr which is seeking nearness to the Shayaateen and worshiping them…
