The answer

It is forbidden to consult a sorcerer or to seek solutions to problems from them, because this contradicts the : "Whoever comes to a sorcerer or a soothsayer or a diviner and believes what he says has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him." It is also forbidden to watch or listen to the acts of a sorcerer, because visiting diviners is forbidden even if one does not question them or believe them. A Muslim must utilize their time and energy in what benefits them in their religion and worldly life, such as reading the Qur'an, studying books of , accompanying scholars, performing supererogatory acts of worship, and choosing purposeful channels such as Qur'anic recitations and educational lessons.
