What is the ruling on one who says, "The celestial sphere has turned, so the years of drought have passed and the years of abundance have come"? And what is the description of cursing time?

The questioner : May Allah forgive you: We have heard people saying, "The celestial sphere has turned, so the years of drought have passed and the years of abundance have come." What is the ruling on such speech? And what is the description of cursing time? May Allah forgive you.

The Shaykh : This speech is not correct. First: Does he have knowledge that time, in its beginning, was a time of abundance and prosperity? So it is a statement made without knowledge.
Second: Nothing has occurred that necessitates such speech. That is, this year is like the one before it. We have experienced a time that was more rainy and had more vegetation than this, and there is no need for this.
As for cursing time: It is to curse the moment and the period, by saying—and may Allah protect us from that—"May Allah curse this moment," or "May Allah curse this day," or "May Allah curse this year," or the like.

The questioner : Does the first speaker become a believer in the star and a disbeliever in Allah?

The Shaykh : No, because he did not claim that it rained because of the star, but he said that Allah restored to people what he claimed was the case in the beginning.
