Allaah says regarding the previous nations:
Likewise, no Messenger came to those before them, but they said: "A sorcerer or a madman!" (Adh-Dhariyat 51:52)
Regarding Prophet Saalih (alayhis salaam) and he was before Prophet Abraham (alayhis salaam), his people said to him:
They said: "You are only of those bewitched! (Ash-Shu'ara 26:153)
And also regarding Shu'ayb (alayhis salaam), the same charge was made against him:
They said: "You are only of those bewitched! (Ash-Shu'ara 26:185)
Regarding Prophet Moses(alayhis salaam):
The chiefs of the people of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said (about Moses): "This is indeed a well-versed sorcerer"... (Al-A'raf 7:109)
So all of this is clear evidence that magic has existed and was practiced from at least the time of Nuh (alayhis salaam). And Ibn Katheer, in his explanation of al-Baqarah (2:102) brings the narration from al-Hasan al-Basree that, "Magic existed before the time of Sulayman bin Dawud".
