عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه، عَنْ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَتَى كَاهِنًا، أَوْ عَرَّافًا، فَصَدَّقَهُ بِمَا يَقُولُ، فَقَدْ كَفَرَ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ»

Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
Whoever goes to a fortune teller or soothsayer and believes what he says disbelieves in what has been revealed to Muhammad.

Abu Hurayrah ‘Abd al-Raḥmān ibn Ṣakhr al-Dawsī embraced Islam in the year in which the Battle of Khaybar took place, i.e. Year 7 of the Hijri calendar. He was the Prophet’s companion who narrated the largest number of his hadiths, because he committed himself to remain close to the Prophet. He was keen to learn the Prophet’s hadiths and he remained for a long time in Madinah. He died in Year 58 AH, 678 CE.
