when Islamic scriptures are not used for it
only in matters relating to religious practices
at all times and in all matters
Açıklama
Islam has taken a strong position against visitation of fortune tellers and the art of fortunetelling. The Islamic ruling with regard to a Muslim who visits a fortuneteller and believes what he (the fortuneteller) tells him or believes that the fortuneteller knows the unseen and the future, is that it is kufr (disbelief), according to the scholars. They based their evidence on the saying of Allah: "With Him are the Keys of the Ghayb (unseen); none knows them but He."(Qur'an 6:59).
