Assessment: JAMB UTME - Islamic Religious Studies - 2014 Subject: Islamic Studies

Question 1 Report

Fortune telling is un-Islamic
Answer Details
In Islam, fortune telling is considered un-Islamic at all times and in all matters. This is because it involves making claims about knowledge of the unseen or future events, which is only known to Allah. Therefore, any attempt to predict the future or provide guidance based on such claims is considered a form of shirk or associating partners with Allah, which is strictly prohibited in Islam. This applies regardless of who is doing the fortune telling, whether they are Muslim or non-Muslim, and whether or not Islamic scriptures are used in the process.
