Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What is called reading coffee cups, does believing in it constitute major shirk (associating partners with Allah)?
Answer:
Yes, this is sorcery, this is sorcery and magic, fortune-telling, so it is not permissible to believe in it. Whoever believes in it has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), as in the hadith.
