Hadith 560
۞
Hadith.3677 - It is narrated from Isa ibn Shaqafi, who was a sorcerer to whom people would come, and he used to take payment for it.
He said
I performed Hajj and met Abu Abdillah (as) in Mina.
I said to Him (as): "May I be your ransom! I am a man whose profession was sorcery, and I used to take payment for it. I have performed Hajj, and Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, has blessed me with meeting you, and I have repented to Allah (swt). Is there any way out for me regarding it?"
Imam (as) said: "Yes, undo (the spells) and do not tie (them)."
3677 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ شَقَفِيٍّ : وَ
كَانَ سَاحِراً يَأْتِيهِ اَلنَّاسُ وَ يَأْخُذُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ اَلْأَجْرَ قَالَ فَحَجَجْتُ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِمِنًى فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَنَا رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ صِنَاعَتِيَ اَلسِّحْرَ وَ كُنْتُ آخُذُ عَلَيْهِ اَلْأَجْرَ وَ قَدْ حَجَجْتُ وَ مَنَّ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيَّ بِلِقَائِكَ وَ قَدْ تُبْتُ إِلَى اَللَّهِ فَهَلْ لِي فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ مَخْرَجٌ فَقَالَ "نَعَمْ حُلَّ وَ لاَ تَعْقِدْ".
