Guidance for those who associate with sorcerers and fortune-tellers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Please, Shaykh. The second question, Honorable Shaykh: Some people associate with famous sorcerers, fortune-tellers, and diviners, asking them for a happy life and to discover their luck. They also attach amulets to protect themselves and their children. What is your guidance regarding these people, Honorable Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
I also referred to this in my speech, where I said that the Muslim relies upon Allah, worships Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and seeks purity from Him. He turns away from those who neither benefit nor harm, such as sorcerers; in fact, they harm and corrupt the creed. These sorcerers, fortune-tellers, and diviners cause confusion, with one saying you are in such and such a situation, and another saying something different from the first. Perhaps one will say so-and-so has cast a spell on you, or so-and-so has done such and such for you, or that your zodiac sign contains such and such, or your horoscope contains such and such. This causes a person to be in worry and distress. If he relies upon Allah, depends upon Allah, and does the beneficial causes that Allah has commanded, he will attain a good life and tranquility. Yes. May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh Ahmad. Thank you. The Shaykh, may Allah prolong your life.
The presenter:
Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh:
Peace be upon you.
