[Machine] And the saying of Allah, exalted is He: "But the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon, Harut and Marut. But the two angels do not teach anyone unless they say, 'We are a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic].' And [yet] they learn from them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah. And the people learn what harms them and does not benefit them. But they certainly knew that whoever acquires it will not have any share in the Hereafter from creation." And His saying, exalted is He: "And the magician will not succeed wherever he is." And His saying: "So do you come with magic while you see [it is forbidden]?" And His saying: "It is thrown into the hearts of those who disbelieve in their magic that it will bring success." And His saying: "And [by] the evil of blowers in knots, from among the witches." "You are being enchanted" and "You are becoming blind."

وَقَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {وَلَكِنَّ الشَّيَاطِينَ كَفَرُوا يُعَلِّمُونَ النَّاسَ السِّحْرَ وَمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَى الْمَلَكَيْنِ بِبَابِلَ هَارُوتَ وَمَارُوتَ وَمَا يُعَلِّمَانِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ حَتَّى يَقُولاَ إِنَّمَا نَحْنُ فِتْنَةٌ فَلاَ تَكْفُرْ فَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مِنْهُمَا مَا يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَزَوْجِهِ وَمَا هُمْ بِضَارِّينَ بِهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مَا يَضُرُّهُمْ وَلاَ يَنْفَعُهُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمُوا لَمَنِ اشْتَرَاهُ مَا لَهُ فِي الآخِرَةِ مِنْ خَلاَقٍ}. وَقَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {وَلاَ يُفْلِحُ السَّاحِرُ حَيْثُ أَتَى}. وَقَوْلِهِ: {أَفَتَأْتُونَ السِّحْرَ وَأَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُونَ}. وَقَوْلِهِ: {يُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ سِحْرِهِمْ أَنَّهَا تَسْعَى}. وَقَوْلِهِ: {وَمِنْ شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ} وَالنَّفَّاثَاتُ السَّوَاحِرُ. {تُسْحَرُونَ} تُعَمَّوْنَ.

bukhari:5763Ibrāhīm b. Mūsá > ʿĪsá b. Yūnus > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

A man called Labid bin al-A'sam from the tribe of Bani Zaraiq worked magic on Messenger of Allah ﷺ till Messenger of Allah ﷺ started imagining that he had done a thing that he had not really done. One day or one night he was with us, he invoked Allah and invoked for a long period, and then said, "O ʿAisha! Do you know that Allah has instructed me concerning the matter I have asked him about? Two men came to me and one of them sat near my head and the other near my feet. One of them said to his companion, "What is the disease of this man?" The other replied, "He is under the effect of magic.' The first one asked, 'Who has worked the magic on him?' The other replied, "Labid bin Al-A'sam.' The first one asked, 'What material did he use?' The other replied, 'A comb and the hairs stuck to it and the skin of pollen of a male date palm.' The first one asked, 'Where is that?' The other replied, '(That is) in the well of Dharwan;' " So Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with some of his companions went there and came back saying, "O ʿAisha, the color of its water is like the infusion of Henna leaves. The tops of the date-palm trees near it are like the heads of the devils." I asked. "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ? Why did you not show it (to the people)?" He said, "Since Allah cured me, I disliked to let evil spread among the people." Then he ordered that the well be filled up with earth.
