Hadith 1729
Hadith.4938 - In the narration of al-Sakooni from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), it is reported that
the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "The magician among the Muslims is to be executed, but the magician among the disbelievers is not to be executed." It was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), why is the magician among the disbelievers not executed?" He (sw) replied: "Because polytheism is greater than magic, and indeed, magic and polytheism are closely linked."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ : "سَاحِرُ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ يُقْتَلُ وَ سَاحِرُ اَلْكُفَّارِ لاَ يُقْتَلُ" قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ لِمَ لاَ يُقْتَلُ سَاحِرُ اَلْكُفَّارِ قَالَ "لِأَنَّ اَلشِّرْكَ أَعْظَمُ مِنَ اَلسِّحْرِ وَ لِأَنَّ اَلسِّحْرَ وَ اَلشِّرْكَ مَقْرُونَانِ".
