Supplicating to Allah for the parents who consult and believe soothsayers


385

A: Whoever asks soothsayers and believes their predictions is an unbeliever, for they belie the revelation of the Qur'an where Allah says, Say: “None in the heavens and the earth knows the Ghaib (Unseen) except Allâh” It is authentically narrated from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he said, whoever visits a diviner and believes what he says is a disbeliever in (Part No. 25; Page No. 268) what was revealed to Muhammad. (Related by Imam Ahmad and Ahl-ul-Sunan (authors of Hadith compilations classified by jurisprudential themes) with an authentic Sanad (chain of narrators)). Consequently, if this applies to the condition of your parents, it will be impermissible on your part to make Du`a' (supplication) for them, or pay money in charity on their behalf except whoever repented from them before death.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
