A. only when it is done by non-Muslims
B. when Islamic scriptures are not used for it
C. only in matters relating to religious practices
D. at all times and in all matters
Correct Answer:
Option B = when Islamic scriptures are not used for it
Explanation
Islam has taken a strong position against the 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).
