What is the ruling on following a person who has blasphemous or anti-Islamic ideas and foretells future expectations, knowing that following him may provide him with indirect support and increase his popularity, and are his actions considered divination or astrology?
It is not permissible to watch or follow the conclusions and predictions of astrologers and atheists, because Islamic law has forbidden believing them and going to them, except for one who intends to refute them. However, if the predictions are based on an analysis of reality and the extraction of results from current events, this is not considered forbidden astrology.
