Introduction
For thousands of years people have been fascinated, awed and fearful at the
Unknown and mystical, being heedless of the dangers and harm that they inflict.
As Muslims it is imperative to understand these evil-filled practices and to
Protect ourselves from them.
Black Magic
Ruling
Both sorcery and illusionism are unlawful in Islam. Sorcery can only be
performed with the aid of devils whose help is attained when the performer
attributes them as partners to Allah in worship. Illusionism does not involve
polytheism, but may none-the-less lead one astray. It is a sin because it
implies an act of disobedience.
Magic is a destructive act, and therefore Islam warns against it. Believers
should avoid magic and magicians; take precautions to heed the danger they
represent and attempt to expose their false allegations. The following evidence
from the Qur'an and Sunnah has asserted this ruling.
Allah says: 'And indeed they knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have no
share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they sold their
own selves, if they but knew.' [The Qur'an 2:102]
Ordained Punishment
According to Islamic law, the penalty that awaits every sorcerer is death. The
Prophet, sallallahu alayhe wa sallam, said: 'Kill every sorcerer, for this is
the punishment ordained by Allah.' Umar ibn al-Khattab sent messages to his
viceroys in those countries under Islamic rule ordering them to kill all
sorcerers. This was later confirmed by Uthman Ibn Affan, Hafsah Bint Umar,
Abdullah Ibn Umar, and Jundub Ibn Abdullah, radhiallahu anhum.
Spells can have a genuine effect that can manipulate the body; even to the
extent that it can cause sexual impotence. It may also make the affected person
go insane, as it disturbs the emotional balance. Allah says in the Qur'an: ' And
from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man
and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's leave.' (2:
102)
The best way to break a spell is by reciting assigned verses from the Qur'an and
to utter specific invocations specially worded by the Prophet, sallallahu alayhe
wa sallam. Another allowable method would be to use medicines lawfully
prescribed for the particular case under examination. What is unlawful, however
is to use magic as a means to break a spell because this is likely to be done by
the aid of devils. Holding fast to Allah, seeking refuge with Him and putting trust in Him,
can attain protection from magic. Also, we should do what is right in the sight of
Allah, and turn away from sin. But more specifically we can recite the following
verses and sayings:
Whoever recites verse 255 of the Surah of al-Baqarah (No 2) before going to bed,
Allah sends him a keeper that protects him against the devils until he wakes up.
Say: 'I seek refuge with Allah?s perfect words from the evil of what He has
created.'
Say the following three times: 'In the name of Allah, Whose mention is a
protection against whatsoever harm is on the Earth or in the Heavens. Verily, He is
the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.'
Proposed system
This means that any one who believes that he possesses such knowledge is
certainly claiming the acquisition of a Divine attribute that Allah (alone)
possesses. Second, it involves using devils and holding fast to them, a ritual
that can only be perfected when the performer is in complete submission to that
damned species. This is a form of polytheism.
Those who go to fortune-tellers to ask them about the future without truly
believing in their falsehoods and without having the slightest intention of
disclosing their falsehood to the public. People in this group are sinful and
their prayers are not accepted for forty days.
Those who believe in the prophecies of the fortune-tellers and go to ask them
about the future. These people are regarded as disbelievers since they deny the
truthfulness of the Qur'an: 'Say: None in the Heavens and the Earth Knows the
Ghaib (Unseen) except Allah.' (27: 65)
Those who go to fortune-tellers and only ask them in order to examine the
truthfulness of their prophecies; then disclose their deceit to the public.
These types of people publicize that fortune-tellers only offer misguidance that
can make believers go astray.
The final solution is that if anybody want to fulfill his or her desires , any kind of wish he
or she should follow the right path that given by allah and his prophet (peace be upon
him) through magig it might be possible that what ever he or she want from their lifegot
but at the day of judgement they should be punish by allah
