[Quranic Reflection]: Magic
"Magic" is defined to be:

Quote:mag·ic

/ˈmajik/
noun
noun: magic
the power of apparently influencing the course of events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.
"suddenly, as if by magic, the doors start to open"

http://www.google.com

There are many claims that "magic" is a real thing; mainly used to prove any false claim that has no evidence at all. Usually, used by the smarter portion of society to suppress the questions of the less smart.

But what is the Quran's opinion in magic? claims were made by the Sunni/Shiite institutions alike that magic exists as a fact in the Quran. Despite having little to no direct evidence from the book.

But let's see this interesting verses speaking about magic:


Quote:Sura 20, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh

( 60 )   So Pharaoh went away, put together his plan, and then came [to Moses].
( 61 )   Moses said to the magicians summoned by Pharaoh, "Woe to you! Do not invent a lie against Allah or He will exterminate you with a punishment; and he has failed who invents [such falsehood]."
( 62 )   So they disputed over their affair among themselves and concealed their private conversation.
( 63 )   They said, "Indeed, these are two magicians who want to drive you out of your land with their magic and do away with your most exemplary way.
( 64 )   So resolve upon your plan and then come [forward] in line. And he has succeeded today who overcomes."
( 65 )   They said, "O Moses, either you throw or we will be the first to throw."
( 66 )   He said, "Rather, you throw." And suddenly their ropes and staffs seemed to him from their magic that they were moving [like snakes].
( 67 )   And he sensed within himself apprehension, did Moses.
( 68 )   Allah said, "Fear not. Indeed, it is you who are superior.
( 69 )   And throw what is in your right hand; it will swallow up what they have crafted. What they have crafted is but the trick of a magician, and the magician will not succeed wherever he is."
( 70 )   So the magicians fell down in prostration. They said, "We have believed in the Lord of Aaron and Moses."


"The trick of a magician" is what the Quran used to describe magic.
"a lie" too.
Magic is the outdated "lie"; a mere "trick" used to convince ignorant people of a lie.
