This book explores the intricate relationship between magic, medicine, and religion in African Traditional Religion (ATR), highlighting their roles in healing, spirituality, and community life. It presents a balanced academic and theological perspective tailored for seminary and university students, aiming to deepen their understanding of African indigenous religious practices and their relevance in contemporary society.The book begins by clarifying key concepts such as magic, medicine, ritual, and spiritual power within African cosmology. It explains how Africans traditionally perceive health and illness-not merely as physical conditions but as issues connected to spiritual and communal harmony. In this worldview, healers, diviners, and herbalists play vital roles, utilizing both natural remedies and spiritual interventions to restore balance and well-being.Through case studies and ethnographic insights, the book examines how magic and medicine are used not only for healing but also for protection, conflict resolution, and maintaining moral order.
