Refuting Some Superstitions Regarding Constellations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother also asks and says: If a person dies and his star is Aries, does Aries come to his grave and dig it up to carry him?
Answer:
This is a superstition with no basis. There is no regard for constellations, nor for the constellation of so-and-so or so-and-so, nor for the star under which one was born. All of these are superstitions from the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. One does not look into the constellation of a dead person, whether he was born under Aries or such-and-such or such-and-such or such-and-such. One does not look into these matters. They have no foundation and are not to be heeded. They have no connection to his life or his death, nor to his reward or his punishment.
