Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh Salim, are fortune-tellers, I mean, present in this time?
Answer:
They are present in large numbers, in every society and at every time, so that Allah may test His servants with them. He tests people with them: who believes them and who does not. So they are present without doubt, and the later the time becomes, the more they multiply, due to the weakness of the religious deterrent in the later times. The firmly grounded scholars in knowledge, the people of sound creed, multiply in societies when the causes for their presence are found. Yes.
