What are the characteristics of those who enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment? Is an omen (fa'l) considered a prohibited form of divination (tatayyur)? And is not seeking ruqyah a form of reliance on God (tawakkul)?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Those who possess four characteristics will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment: they do not seek (incantation), they do not believe in omens, they do not cauterize (unless absolutely necessary), and they rely solely on their Lord. This indicates their high degree of reliance on Allah and their submission to His will. As for a good omen, it is praiseworthy and stems from having good thoughts about Allah, and it is not considered the reprehensible type of ill omen.
