Jizyah and Mawaada'ah

58/14. Chapter:

If a Dhimmi practises magic, can he be excused?

وَقَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ سُئِلَ أَعَلَى مَنْ سَحَرَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَهْدِ قَتْلٌ قَالَ بَلَغَنَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ صُنِعَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَلَمْ يَقْتُلْ مَنْ صَنَعَهُ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ.Ibn Shihab was asked, "If one of those with whom Muslims have made a covenant bewitches people, will he be sentenced to death?" He replied, "We have been informed that Allah's Messenger ﷺ was bewitched, yet he did not kill the magician who was from the people of the Scriptures."

Sahih Bukhari

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم سُحِرَ حَتَّى كَانَ يُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ صَنَعَ شَيْئًا وَلَمْ يَصْنَعْهُ‏.‏

Narrated Aisha: Once the Prophet (ﷺ) was bewitched so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done.
