Not especially. Allah dominates all other powers, and weird foreign wizards may also be demon-worshippers or blasphemers, but there's no particular laws against magic that I can recall. Djinn - creatures of supernatural power - can be good Muslims, after all.

For that matter, Islam probably has less of a record of witch-hunting than Christianity. A wizard who presents as a scholar, doesn't claim that his powers make him theologically special, and shows up at the mosque on Fridays, might well be seen as basically okay.
