It's a sad reality that upon all the campaigns from our scholars against visiting these evil soothsayers, fortune tellers, so called malams/pastors etc, you still see some parents and couples going to these evil agents to find out if their marriage will be successful or if they are compatible. Where is our imaan in the Creator who thought us how to marry through the best of mankind Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)?
The ruling on fortune-telling, i.e., soothsaying, and claiming to know the unseen, is that these are actions which condemn a person to Hell and put him/her beyond the pale of Islam.
Fortune-tellers cooperate with the evil jinn; they are liars who cooperate with the shayaatin (devils), who do not help them except after they have changed their religion, and whoever changes his religion [leaves Islam] has actually sold their space in PARADISE and purchased a space in hell ALLAH forbid. The ruling concerning those who go to them and believe them is that they are guilty of kufr (disbelief); if they do not believe them, the rewards of their prayers for forty days is lost and dying in this is a certificate to hell.
The evidence (daleel) is the hadeeth of Abu Hurairah, according to which the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAAH be upon him) said: Whoever goes to a fortune-teller and believes what he says, has disbelieved in ISLAM (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 135; Abu Dawood, 3904; Ibn Maajah, 639; Ahmad, 9252.
Also, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), said: Whoever goes to a fortune-teller and asks him about anything, his prayers will not be accepted for forty days. (Narrated by Muslim, 2230). If your prayers will not be accepted, how can your marriage be successful? If ALLAH is not sufficient for you, then I sympathise with you seriously.
