Jail for black magic and witchcraft

An Asian expatriate has been arrested and sentenced to two years' prison on charges of indulging in black magic and witchcraft. After losing his job, the man posed as a religious personage capable of "driving away evil spirits, curing sick souls and dispelling evil eyes". He recited verses from the Qur'an and gave amulets. One sufferer made an official complaint after several visits to the fraudster; the police swooped into action and confiscated many suspicious items in his room. On being cross-examined, the magician confessed to his crimes.

I thought that black magic was conducted by sorcerer, priest or a witch.

But Wonder boy here identifies him as a Magician. I guess he was playing trick or treat games....

just curious...

I realize the Quran doesn't teach anyone to do that kind of thing, but does it specifically say NOT to? I have no idea, which is why I am asking, not to stir up trouble...
