Sehrgarlik katta gunoh hisoblanadi, chunki sehrgar albatta kofir bo'ladi va la'natlangan shayton odamga sehrni o'rgatishdan boshqa maqsadga ega emas, faqat shu yo'l bilan Allohga shariklar isnod qilishga undash uchun.

Sorcery is a major sin because the sorcerer must necessarily disbelieve and the accursed Devil has no other motive for teaching a person witchcraft than that he might thereby ascribe associates to Allah.

Alloh, Qodir va Mutaolning so'zi: {Sulaymon kufr keltirmagan, balki shaytonlar kufr keltirgan edi. Ular odamlarga sehrni va Bobilda ikki farishta Horut va Morutga nozil qilingan narsalarni o'rgatar edilar. Ular ikkovi ham: "Biz faqat sinov uchun bo'lamiz, shuning uchun kufr keltirmang", demasdan turib birortaga (bu ilmni) o'rgatmas edilar. Ular (odamlar) bu ikkovidan erkak bilan xotinning o'rtasini ajratadigan narsani o'rganardilar. Lekin ular Allohning iznisiz hech kimga zarar yetkaza olmas edilar. Ular o'zlariga foyda keltirmaydigan, zarar keltiradigan narsani o'rganardilar. Ular sehrni sotib olganlarga oxiratda hech qanday ulush yo'qligini bilardilar.} (Al-Baqara: 102)

Allah, the Almighty, says, {Solomon did not disbelieve but Satan disbelieved, teaching men magic, and such things as came down at Babylon to the angels Harut and Marut. But neither of these taught anyone (such things) without saying, 'We are only for trial,' so do not blaspheme.' They learned from them the means to sow discord between man and wife. But they could not harm anyone except by Allah's permission. And they learned what harmed them, not what profited them. And they knew that the buyers of (magic) would have no share in the happiness of the Hereafter.} (AI- Baqarah: 102)
