A number of citizens questioned the penalties for crimes of sorcery, witchcraft, fraud, and fraud, after the artist Fifi Abdo recently appeared in statements during the ET Arabic program, crying out for many health problems due to “magic and business.”

And she continued: “Surely a million percent is done for me to work so that I can’t move from the bed, and if I know who did it, kiss your man, remove the work. It is forbidden for you. Better in bed than I need to find a need.”

New draft law for the crimes of witchcraft and sorcery

Representative Doaa Oreibi, presenter of the draft law, said in the explanatory memorandum to the draft law that due to the large number of witchcraft and sorcery crimes and that the Egyptian law did not provide for witchcraft and sorcery crimes directly and did not address them from near or far, but it is punishable as a crime of fraud according to the text of Article 336 of the Egyptian Penal Code.

She pointed out that a distinction must be made between two things, namely those who perform legal ruqyah without obtaining a financial reward, provided that their actions do not exceed the legal ruqyah, and between witches, charlatans and sorcerers who harm people and compromise their safety and the safety of their lives and families, because religious scholars agreed that learning and teaching magic and its practice is forbidden by Sharia, which required preparing the presented project and harshening the penalties if those crimes were committed to deter and limit those who committed them.
