A fabricated magic is the magic that you perform and then attribute to Allah. Or it is a manifest magic of which the attribution is false. Or it is described as falsehood like other types of magic and is not a miracle from Allah. In our ancestors, there is a case established regarding this, meaning: existing in their time and days. He means by saying what has been narrated to us about its existence among them, and it is possible that they were lying about that, while they had heard and known something similar. Or he means that they did not hear of anything like it in its severity. Or what the soothsayers used to inform about the appearance of Musa and his coming with what he brought. This is evidence that they were confounded and refuted, and they found nothing to counter what came to them from the signs except their saying: 'This is magic and an innovation that we have not heard of its like.'
