Visiting fortune-tellers, diviners, and sorcerers, and not asking them about any of the matters of the unseen

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifteenth question of Fatwa No. ( 5953 ):
Q15: Some people claim that they treat the insane, and create affection or discord between spouses. It has also been said that they make du'a for the barren woman, and Allah grants her offspring. They possess superstitions of which Allah is fully aware, and their actions, beliefs, and claims are never free from shirk (associating partners with Allah). What is the ruling regarding them and those who go to them? I hope for an answer. May Allah guide you and benefit us with your knowledge.
A15: It is not permissible to visit fortune-tellers, diviners, or sorcerers, nor to ask them about any of the matters of the unseen, nor to believe what they say, nor
to act upon their opinions; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited visiting them, asking them, and believing them in the authentic hadiths. And success is from Allah. And may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
