Bajālah ibn ‘Abadah reported that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote: "Kill every sorcerer and sorceress." Bajālah said: "So we killed three sorceresses." Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "A maid-servant of Hafsah (the Prophet’s wife) bewitched her and admitted practicing sorcery. So Hafsah ordered ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Zayd to kill her." Also, Abu ‘Uthmān An-Nahdi said: "Al-Walīd had a magician who used to perform shows before him.

He once slaughtered a man, cutting off his head, and we were astonished. Then he returned the head to its proper place, so Jundub al-Azdi came and killed him."

عن بَجَالَةَ بن عَبَدة قال: كتب عمر بن الخطاب: «أن اقتُلُوا كلّ ساحر وساحرة». قال: فقتلنا ثلاث سواحر. وعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنه : «أن حفصة سَحَرَتْها جاريتها فاعتَرَفَتْ بسِحْرها، فأمرت عبد الرحمن بن زيد فقتلها». وعن أبي عثمان النهدي: «أنه كان عند الوليد رجل يلعب فذبح إنسانًا، وأبان رأسه؛ فعَجِبْنا، فأعاد رأسه، فجاء جُنْدُبٌ الْأَزْديّ فقتله».
