What is the ruling on watching fortune-tellers on television screens and satellite channels?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on those who watch fortune-tellers on television screens and satellite channels, whether they believe the fortune-teller or not?

Answer:
It is not permissible for them to do this; it is an abomination. It is not permissible for them to look at it, because this is an abomination, and it may attach itself to their minds or affect them. This is especially true for the common people, who are in great danger from these channels that bring evil and corruption in creed, in morals, and in transactions. There is no good in them, so the Muslim should keep them away from his home, lest he destroy his home and corrupt the creed of his children and his family. Yes.
