A ghair muqallid posing as a Hambali claims that Imaam Abu Hanifah denied the reality of sihr (magic).

Question

A ghair muqallid posing as a Hambali claims that Imaam Abu Hanifah denied the reality of sihr (magic). Is there any proof in the Hanafi books for this claim. Can you please show me proof for this allegation?

Answer

It is not our responsibility to show 'proof' for the allegation that Imaam Abu Hanifah (rahmatullah alayh) had 'rejected' the reality of sihr. The Salafi masquerading as a Hambali, who makes this claim should provide the proof. So ask him for the proof. When he provides the 'proof' you may forward it to us for dissection and istinjaolical disposal.
