Custody of the Boy After Puberty

Question
I was married to someone from Mansoura, and after 3 months of marriage, I discovered that he was a magician and I separated from him 13 years ago. I have a son named Mohammed from him, and now he wants to come back to me. What is the ruling?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: Your son Muhammad is now an adult, and after reaching adulthood, he has the right to live wherever he wishes, whether with his mother or father. If you believe that his father's environment is corrupt, it is better for you to raise him and take care of him. And God knows best.
