Was the Prophet Elijah an astrologer?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
No one has mentioned that the Prophet Elias (peace be upon him) knew the unseen through the stars. Astrology is unanimously forbidden, as it is a form of magic. Prophets are free from such forbidden matters because they are infallible and are self-sufficient with divine revelation, having no need for such methods.
