HOW TO RECOGNIZE A MAGICIAN OR A FAKE PRACTITIONER OF MAGIC- (Black Magic Series Pt-2)

Signs of a magician or ill practitioner- 

Beware – these people look like you and I. They can look like pious or righteous people that you would never distinguish as practicing this evil. It’s only when we are educated and know the signs of the Sahir (magician) that we are able to spot them. Going to a magician or using their help in this, is a form of disbelief (kufr) so we must beware and be careful not to fall into this error

Distinctive Features of A Sahir’s (magician’s) Work

If you find one of these following charcteristics in a person who treats people suffering from sihr or other relate illnesses, then this person is surely a sahir (magician).

1.) He asks the patient his and his mother’s names. Which is why it is always recommend that the woman to not use her name and she may call herself Bint-e- so and so or Umm-e- so and so.

2.) He takes a sweaty garment from the patient (a piece of cloth, hat, blood, hair, nail or some kind of DNA)

3.) He sometimes asks for an animal, with certain specifications, in order to slaughter it without saying the name of Allah. He may use the sacrificial blood to stain some painful areas of the patient, or throw the carcass in on a ruined site.

4.) He writes incantations.

5.) He recites unclear incantations. Usually which looks to us like he is reciting the Qurán but he's not. He is using magic spells.

6.) He gives the patient a hijab (incantation written on a piece of paper), which contains squares within which letters or figures are written.

7.) He instructs the patient to isolate himself/herself in a dark room and to not talk to people for a certain period of time.

8.) He sometimes instructs the patient to not touch water for a certain period of time, usually forty days. This indicates the this particular jinn working for the Sahir is Christian.

9.) He gives the patient some items to bury in the ground.

10.) He gives the patient some pieces of paper to burn to use as incens for their body.

11.) He murmurs unclear words.

12.) He sometimes informs the patient his name, his town and the reason for his visit.

13.) He writes broken letters on a piece of paper (hijab) or on a plate made of white porcelain, and instructs the patient to dissolve the writing in water, and then drink it.”

Shaykh Sulaymaan al-‘Alwaan (www.islam-qa.com) had this to say about practioners of magic: Magic in all its forms in haraam according to all divinely-revealed laws, and there is scholarly consensus that magic and learning magic are haraam. Magic goes against that which the Messengers brought and it opposes the purpose for which the Books were revealed. Most of the scholars were of the view that the one who practices magic is a kaafir whom the authorities are obliged to execute.

“But neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, ‘We are for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)’ [Quran al-Baqarah 2:102]

Spread awareness about this very important issue. Many people mistakenly seek help from people that make their problems worse! Magicians commit the highest level of Kufr (disbelief) and their aim is to ease you into it while you know not! Beware! Shirk is the gravest of sins and must educate ourselves to stay well clear of it.

What is Black Magic and How It Works? --(Black Magic Series)

Assalamualaikum WarahatuAllahi Wabakaatuhu!

Primarily, black magic is real and it exists.

The Prophet (Sal-allahu-aleihi-wasallam) said, "Avoid the seven great destructive sins." The people enquire, "O Allah's Apostle! What are they? " He said:
"To join others in worship along with Allah, to practice sorcery, to kill the life which Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islamic law), to eat up riba (usury),
to eat up an orphan's wealth, to give back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting,
and to accuse chaste women, who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers."
Narrated by Abu Hurairah (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Sahih Bukhari transmitted it. Vol 4:#28 of Sahih Bukhari.

What I am about to write are exactly not my words but I am re-posting this from www.ruqyasupport.com
This post will aware you and I about what Black magic is, who are the black magicians and how to cure black magic in sha Allah but with different posts. (As this topic could be really long)
I am no way near to an expert. This is just a re-posted blog post which has been copied from a reliable source. And Allah knows best! If you are willing to check your sources into the authenticity of this post, please go ahead and do so. And comment below if there seems to be an authenticity error.

What is Sihr (Black Magic)?
Black magic is done by a magician. It can effect anybody, a Prophet, a mo'min, a liar, a kuffar. It is verrry rampant in the Muslim community as well, like in the Middle East, Africa, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and basically all over the world. 

When somebody is afflicted with black magic they start seeing things which are not really there and they constantly go into delusion. Sihir is also set of knots which is tied with Shirk. The magician is the one who ties it with Shirk. And he utters words of shirk in his mummers and not the Qurán then he ties them into a Taa'weez. (we will talk about this more in the coming posts in sha Allah) Black Magic effects the hearts and the minds. Sihr comes from the word "hidden" & 'not seen'. So when you are afflicted with magic it's actually hidden and you won't realize it happening to you. The goal is to do black magic behind the back. Black magic causes many problems like it turns good health into sickness and in some severe cases it could also cause death. It can cause division between husband and wife, husband and mother, brother and sister or the downfall between the business partners or cause someone to attract towards someone without any reason. (a.k.a love poison)

The most common type of Sihr out there is called Sihr-e-Tafreeq. It is the most nasty kind of Sihr where it separates a man from his wife. And the number one OBJECTIVE of shaitaan is to separate a Man from his wife and this is mentioned in Surah Al Baqarah 102
"They followed what the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils) disbelieved, teaching men magic and such things that came down at Babylon to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, "We are only for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)." 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. And they learn that which harms them and profits them not. 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 ownselves, if they but knew."

Why does the shaitaan wants to do this? Because he wants to break the halal contract between the husband and wife.

Also, Imam Muslim reported on the authority of Jabir ibn `Abdullah, who stated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Iblis (Satan) places his throne upon water, then sends his groups. The closest to him are those who (tempt people to) commit the most grievous of sins (fitnah). One of them would approach him and say: I did such-and-such. Iblis would reply: You have done nothing. Another would approach and say: I did not leave him (a man) until I caused him to leave his wife and for them to be separated. Iblis would bring him close to his throne and would say: How good you are!”
There are many types of Sihr. You would be shocked to see the damage Black magic causes on a person's life and have catastrophic issues like cause madness, epilepsy, cause to have bad dreams, not have children and remove the copulation between husband and wife, bring lust in oneself and many other severe dangers.

Why do people do Sihr? It is because of jealousy. A person who is jealous of someone's happy marriage, just can't take it and wants to cause separation between them or break the successful relation of two business partners and cause the business to a downfall. This is why our Prophet Sallalahu alaihi wasallam warned us of jealousy. He said, “Beware of jealousy, for verily it destroys good deeds the way fire destroys wood.” [Abu Dawood]

When Allah’s Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) was asked who are the best of people? He (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) replied: “the one with a clean heart and truthful tongue.” They asked: ‘We understand a truthful tongue, but what does a clean heart mean?’ he (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) answered: “It is the heart of one that is pious, pure, and is free of sin, transgressions, hatred and Hasad.” [Ibn Majah]

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) as saying: “Don’t bear aversion against one another and don’t be jealous of one another and be servants of Allah.” [Muslim :: Book 32 : Hadith 6218]

How does Sihr work?
It needs an instigator who is the 'jealous' one, it could be an aunt or uncle or an enemy who sees what you're doing from a distance and hates someone's marriage or someone, then they plot and plan to destroy the marriage. Then there's the victim who is afflicted with this black magic. Then there's the motive: whether to separate them, to make them argue or make them from stop having children, or kill them, not let them get married, cause them to fall severely ill, not let them have a job, remove their income etc.
The instigator with the motive will go to the magician. He will do the magic by using the DNA of the victim, like his old clothes, or clothes that has his sweat, blood, hair or nails etc. He would also ask the victim's name and the victim's mother's name. And then he will call upon the Jinn to order him to cause all of this problems. The jinn enters the body of the victim and directly goes to the brain and controls the whole body. He would cause the Waswasa (severe whispering). For e.g: if the motive is divorce from the wife then it will cause severe waswasa towards his wife to hate her and be angry on her and so on. subhaAllah! This is a horrible crime for which they have sold their aakhirah only for a miserly worldly gain. 
These details are only mentioned for us to awaken and beware of these magicians and to protect ourselves from Magic. Keep yourselves clean, dispose your humanely dirt, remains properly and always read the morning and evening azkar to keep yourself protected and to keep a distance from suspicious people or fake aalims who pretend to cure us but are actually causing harm. 

If these problems normally occur between a husband and a wife, it doesn't necessarily mean that they have black magic on them however chances are there. Not every problem in our lives are related to magic so beware of your problems and try to solve them first before claiming every problem in your life as black magic or evil eye. It could also be a trial from Allah subhaAllah wa taála. 

Stayed tuned for the next part of BMS.
