Question:
Is the fortune-teller declared a disbeliever without the evidence being established against him?

Answer:
No one is to be declared a disbeliever until the proof is established against him, because he may be ignorant and not know, or he may have seen people doing this and thought it was permissible, so it is necessary
And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّىٰ نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا
[Al-Isra 17:15]
that the proof be established against him. Yes.
