 Magic (Harry Potter) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Furthermore, magical techniques have been used to prolong life: the Philosopher's Stone can be used to prepare a potion that postpones death indefinitely, and Lord Voldemort is one of the few wizards to ever use Horcruxes in his long sought attempt to "conquer death," and the only one to use multiple Horcruxes.
In the Harry Potter books, magic is depicted as a natural force, one that can be used to override the usual laws of nature while still being approached entirely scientifically.
It was through love that Lily Potter was able to save her son Harry from death by sacrificing her life so that he might live.

 FT January 2000: Harry Potter's Magic
This history provides a key to understanding the role of magic in Joanne Rowling’s books, for she begins by positing a counterfactual history, a history in which magic was not a false and incompetent discipline, but rather a means of controlling the physical world at least as potent as experimental science.
Harry Potter is unquestionably a good boy, but, as I have suggested, a key component of his virtue arises from his recognition that he is not inevitably good.
Moreover, Harry’s tendency to bypass or simply flout the rules is a matter of moral concern for him: he wonders and worries about the self—justifications he offers, and often doubts not just his abilities but his virtue.

 Harry Potter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 Harry Potter: The Truth behind the Magic
Harry then performed his magic and put the boy in the cage with the snake, who was terrifying the kid.
Over one hundred million Harry Potter books have been sold in over 200 countries and translated into 46 languages making J.K. Rowling a billionaire in the 4 years since publishing her first book, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”.
Before some of my readers write and tell me that Harry Potter is a a hero and that there are witches who practice white witchcraft, (good witchcraft), God reminds us that Satan comes as an angel of light (2nd.Corinthians 11:14).

 Harry Potter - Pampered jock, patsy, fraud. By Chris Suellentrop
But that would be very unHarry-like because one of the lessons of the books is that Harry has learned to ignore people telling him how worthless he is and to find his own meaning in life, despite all adversity and, most of all, to take care of himself as best he can.
Pure happenstance is the only reason Voldemort is unable to kill Harry: Both their magic wands were made with feathers from the same bird.
Almost all Harry's deeds in the first book take place under the watchful eye of Hogwarts headmaster Dumbledore, who saves Harry from certain death at the end of the book.

 Magic Of Harry Potter
"In Hogwarts, there's a magical quill which detects the birth of a magical child, and writes his or her name down in a large parchment book.
This wizardly spell that works the magic, is simply a funny sounding giggle that you do, at the same time you wave your magic wand or wiggle those magic fingers, to help make the magic work!
This is consistent with the concept that those with Magic ability are "different" and that difference can be sensed by, for example, Owls and the barrier to Platform Nine and Three-Quarters."
