Djinn are supernatural creatures. While angels are said to be made out of light, the Quran tells that djinn come out of smokeless fire. Invisible for human beings, witches cut out the pupil of a cat, mix it with kajal and surround their eyes completely with it to see these djinn. In Morocco, djinn have a presence throughout stories passed down from generation to generation. They can be a convenient explanation for mental health issues, or an excuse for problems that are difficult to defend in the eyes of a judgmental society, including the reasons a young woman never married. The belief in djinn allows people to have faith that something spiritual, not Allah, can help fulfill their desires. Women can invoke the djinn to gain bit of power so often denied to them in Moroccan society. Through witchcraft they can instrumentalize the djinn. Magic is mostly used for love, to prevent a divorce, to harm someone or in need of help. 
These photographs show a wide range of believes, hopes and forms of power through I hope to show a richer and more subtle image that is also part of Islam.

At the same time emphasizing on the aspect of witchcraft, I want to pay particular importance to gender issues: wizardry serves as a means of female empowerment.
