Chapter 2 : Witchcraft and witches

"Had We sent down this Qur'aan on a mourztairz, you

would surely have seen it humbling itself and rent
asunder by the fear of Allaah ."
(Al-Hashr 5921)

some witclhes follow up their spells and renew them
from time to time.
.

There are several benefits in following a program for

the sick person, as well as regularly reciting the
Adhklurr for morning and evening, and the Adhkaar
which are to be recited at certain times in the Muslim's
life, which are listed in the final chapter of this book.
These benefits include the following:
1 - Cutting off the means_ _ of return

Beware of the following types of practitioners

The witches (may the curse of AlIaah be upon them)

give people a false impression, that they are treating
them bv means of the Noble Qur'aan. F& the purpose
of stealing and cheating, they may recite a few Verses
in an audible voice, or else write them down. I have
read something very strange written by one of their
leaders who taught them witchcraft. His name is
'Abdul-Fattaah Al-Tookhi. In the introduction to one
of his many books, which is entitled Tasfieer AlShayaateen Fi Wisnat Al-'Aashiqeen (Using the devils to
create love), he says:
"One who hopes that AIlaah will grant him success
and prosperity- Al-Tookhi Al-Fa1ki 'Abdul-Fattaah
ibn Al-Sayyid Muhammad 'Abduh (may AIlaah
forgive him and those who come before him and
after him) - says: This is a very valuable book, which I
have baskd on the knowledge of the earlier and later
generations, and have called it Taskheer Al-Slmy~atken
Fi Wisaal AI-'Aashiqem (Using the devils to create
love)."
After this heretic asks Allaah for success and
prosperity, he
- goes on to teach people how to seek
the help of the accursed filees in creating love in the

hearts of virgin girls, how to show disrespect to ihe

words of AIlaah, and his Kufr and heresy even goes so
far as teaching people how to write the Qur'aanic
Verses on the genitals when having intercourse.[11

AIlaah indeed spoke the truth when He said:
