What is the ruling on contacting a sorcerer via telephone?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. A questioner says: Regarding the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "Whoever goes to a sorcerer... " or as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said. The question is: What is the ruling on contacting a sorcerer via telephone to perform sorcery on a person or to ask him about sorcery? Because this exists in this original text. If he calls him on the phone and asks him, he has gone to him.

Answer:
"Going to him" includes going to his place or calling him on the phone; this is going to him. So this action is not permissible. It is not permissible to go to him, nor to call him, nor to write to him. The questioner and the fortune-teller: it is not permissible for a Muslim to ask him in any way, not via telephone, not via writing, and not via going to him. Because when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the disbelievers, he said: "Do not go to them, cut off the relationship with them, do not write to them, and do not ask them."
