Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: My father goes to sorcerers and fortune-tellers to harm everyone who opposes him, and he has performed sorcery for his mother and my father. He says: My father goes to sorcerers and fortune-tellers. Do you mean, instead of sorcerers, sorcerers? Yes. He says: My father goes to sorcerers and fortune-tellers to harm everyone who opposes him, and he has performed sorcery for his mother, and he denies it. He has performed sorcery for his mother, and he denies that he goes, and he is a Sufi. The question is: What do I do with him? And what is obligatory for me, my mother, and my brothers?

Answer:
The obligatory thing is to advise him, and you tell him the hadith: "Whoever goes to a fortune-teller or a soothsayer and asks him about something
has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammadفقد كفر بما أنزل على محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم
Musnad Ahmad 657, 658Lts isnad is Da'if because Abu Muwarri’ is unknown], lts isnad is Da\'if because Abu Muwarri\' is unknown and it is repeat of previous report] (Darussalam)
." You advise him, you recite this hadith to him, and that it is not permissible to go to sorcerers and fortune-tellers. And if he fears their harm, he must resort to the prescribed dhikr, he must use the Shari'ah-prescribed dhikr from the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and the supplications in the morning and evening. This protects him, by the permission of Allah, and preserves his creed. Yes.
