Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is there a difference between the sorcerer and the fortune-teller?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the sorcerer has a craft; sorcery is a craft. And as for what?

The questioner:
Between the sorcerer and the fortune-teller.

The Shaykh:
As for the fortune-teller, he is the one who claims knowledge of the unseen, and the sorcerer is the one who practices sorcery, who makes sorcery. Yes.
