The question

Is what is happening in Egypt, regarding a husband abstaining from his wife on the wedding night under the pretext of "al-ribat" (binding) or "al-marboot" (bound), correct, and does this require anything to undo this binding?

The answer

It is not necessarily true that every sexual weakness or impotence is caused by magic (sihr), but it can happen that a person is bewitched to be prevented from his wife, as Allah mentioned in Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayah 102. To get rid of this, one must use the legitimate incantations by reciting Ayat al-Kursi, Al-Fatiha, the verses of magic, and Surahs Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, and An-Nas. One can also seek the help of a righteous reciter (qari’) to recite these surahs over water for the patient to drink and wash with, or to recite and blow upon the patient directly.
