What is the ruling on seeking refuge with a person who claims spirituality to undo magic?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
It appears that the man mentioned dissolves magic with magic. Some scholars have permitted this out of necessity, but the more preponderant view is that it is absolutely forbidden, due to the availability of -compliant methods for dissolving magic.
An-Nushrah, which is a form of magic, is forbidden, even if it is intended to dissolve magic. This is in contrast to an-Nushrah that is not a form of magic, which is permissible.
Scholars have differed on the permissibility of dissolving magic with magic. Some have allowed it out of necessity, while others have prohibited it.
