Abstract
This research paper entitles the Reality of magic its Types and rulings. There are numerous opinions regarding the question of 'what is magic' and 'when did it come into existence'? Nevertheless, it is evident that magic has been prevalent amongst people since ancient times, but the exact date of its origin is unknown; in addition, it is also not known as to who was the first person to have brought it into existence. However, with respect to its meaning and essence, it can be said that magic is a kind of supernatural act which has an impact on men; at times it is a kind of jugglery and sleight of hand, while on other occasions it is just psychological and imaginary. Magic is the application of beliefs, rituals or actions practiced with the view that they can subdue or manipulate natural or supernatural beings and forces. Throughout history there have been individuals who engaged in practices that their societies called magic and who sometimes referred to themselves as magicians or witches. Magic has been an important part of human culture for most of recorded history, variously having positive, ambivalent and negative connotations, and continues to have an important religious and medicinal role in many cultures today. This research focuses on many important aspects which include authenticity of magic, the existence of magic, its types and opinions of eminent scholars regarding it.
