Fortunetelling
An article in English in which Dr. Bilal Philips confirms that some people claim knowledge of the unseen and the future. They are called and known as fortune teller, soothsayer, foreseer, augur, magician, prognosticator, oracle, astrologer, palmist, etc. They use various methods and mediums from which they claim to extract their information, among them: reading tea-leaves, drawing lines, writing numbers, palm-reading, casting horoscopes, crystal ball gazing, rattling bones, throwing sticks, etc. This article shows the Islamic perspective towards these acts, based on the Quran and the sunnah.
