What is the ruling on undoing magic with similar magic to solve marital problems?
It is permissible to remove magic from an enchanted person if it is done through the Ruqyah Shar'iyyah (Islamic incantations), supplications, permissible medications, and invocations. This is a virtuous act for which a person is rewarded. However, removing magic with magic itself is forbidden and is an act of Satan. And whoever uses magic to remove magic must repent to Allah, because magic is disbelief (kufr) and a great danger to religion. As for the enchanted patient, he must be patient, seek reward from Allah, put his trust in Allah, take the permissible means of treatment, supplicate frequently, and stay away from sorcerers, soothsayers, and diviners, because asking them and believing them is disbelief.
