Summary/Abstract: The article aims to put forth how wrong it is to interpret the metaphysic aspect of the religion with the effect of rationalism and positivism with level-headed comments and aims to prove these that religion is a reality which won’t be separated from metaphysics. Religion in itself comes from a metaphysical aspect and transportation of prophet miracles and of mahatma oracles is a proof of this. To this end, this paper deals with Magic and Witchcraft which seem like a supernatural event even though it’s not, along with Miracle and Oracle which are real supernatural events; thus within this context, anecdotes and events are analyzed especially by the ones who are active around Sufism in the Islamic culture.
