What is the ruling of Islamic law on dealing with sorcery that can only be undone by Jews, and is it permissible to deal with them to undo a love spell that has affected one's brother?
If the existence of magic is confirmed, then the (exorcism) must be performed with the Quran and Prophetic supplications. Whoever performs magic commits a grave sin that may lead to disbelief (kufr), and must repent and strive to undo the magic through lawful means. It is not permissible to go to sorcerers, soothsayers, or magicians to undo magic, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever comes to a soothsayer or a diviner and believes what he says has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him." And his saying: "Whoever comes to a diviner and asks him about something, his prayer will not be accepted for forty days." The Jews are people of disbelief and magic, and it is not permissible to go to them. It is not permissible to accuse someone of performing magic based solely on suspicion.
