Re: Sifali/Siphli Ilm
Question: In our society, a person who is supposed to be under the influence of magic is taken to so called ‘amil's who recite certain words and then discover whether the person is really a victim of black magic or not. Please note that I am not talking about hysteria patients. I am also not talking about witch doctors when I use the word ‘amil's. These ‘amil's are pious people who have spent their lives in finding the effects of various Qur’anic verses. My questions are:
1. How do we come to know that a person is a victim of black magic?
2. Should we consult ‘amil's?
3. Do verses have mystical effects? A common example is the recitation of ‘Ayah-i-Karimah to ask Allah to rescue one out of a bad patch in life?
Answers: As far as magic is concerned, one cannot deny its existence. The Qur’an specifically mentions it as an evil discipline (sifli `ilm) practiced by the devils from both among the men and the jinn-folk:
Is this what you were refering to?
