Understanding An-Nushrah: Islamic Perspective on Breaking Magic and Its Prohibition

Lesson 53 from the Book of Tawheed: The Prohibition of An-Nushrah and Distinguishing Between Permissible and Impermissible Practices

53rd Lesson from the Book of Tawheed by Shaykhul-Islaam Muhammad bin Abdil-Wahhaab

بســـم اللــه الرحــمــن الـرحـــيــم

From the commentary on the Book of Tawheed by Shaykhul-Islaam Muhammad bin Abdil-Wahhaab may Allaah have mercy on him, 53rd, Lesson

By Shaykh, the ‘Allāmah, the Trustworthy Advisor, Abu ‘Abdirrahmān Yahya bin ‘Ali Al-Hajūri – may Allāh preserve him – on the 5th, Dhul-Qi’dah, 1443H

Chapter: What has come concerning An-Nushrah

From Jaabir: That the Prophet was asked about An-Nushrah? So he said: "It's from the works of the Shaytaan (devil)."

[Reported by Ahmed with a Jayyid chain and Abu Daawud]

And he said Ahmed was about it so he said Ibn Mas’ood saw all of it as impermissible.”

And in Al-Bukhaari from Qataadah, I said to Ibn Musayyib: "A man has been inflicted with magic or is abstaining from his wife? Is the magic to be broken or Nushrah to be done? So he said:" There's no problem with it, they intend rectification by it, as for what is beneficial they didn't prohibit it."

[End of speech]

And it’s reported from Al-Hasan that he said: “Nothing cancels magic except a magician.”

Ibnul-Qayyim said: “An-Nushrah is canceling magic from the one inflicted with magic, and its of two types: 

The First: Canceling it with magic like it, and that is what is from the works of Shaytaan. And upon it is the statement of Al-Hasan understood, so the Naashir and Muntashir seek closeness to the Shaytaan with what he loves, so he cancels the magic from the one inflicted with magic.

The Second: An-Nushrah with Ruqyah and the Mu’awithaat and remedies and permissible du’aas. So this is permissible.

In it are Masaa’il (topics):

The First: The prohibition of An-Nushrah.

The Second: The difference between whats prohibited and what’s allowed which removes the confusion.
