The Ruling on One Who Practices Fortune-Telling
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if someone practices fortune-telling, do we declare him a disbeliever, or do we not give him a ruling?
Answer:
This is the apparent view: whoever does this is considered to have committed disbelief, because he claims knowledge of the unseen, and claiming knowledge of the unseen is one of the nullifiers of Islam.
