BISMILLA HIR RAHMA NIR RAHIM WONDER ACTS, MAGIC AND SORCERY WONDER ACTS ARE .,NO PROOF OF PERFECTION There are many Wonder Acts performed by various scholars. It is said that we should not be fooled by even the Wonder Acts. It is not necessary that only the true followers can demonstrate wonder acts, but even the kafir by putting his spirit in trouble and by doing certain actions can also demonstrate. Wonder Acts. God will not bless him on the day of judgement but given the rewards in this very world. The truth is not proved by doing certain acts (for the worldly gains), by putting exertion on the spirit and so we should not get fooled by such deeds. It is said that in some places in Indit-t they stand with the wet clay in the palm with seeds in it in front of the idol. They stand in that manner for a long time and when the seeds germinate in a plant then the desire is attained. They think that their their idol has fulfilled fulfilled their wishes, which is not so. Many stop their breath or in the whole night breath ust once or twice and hence practice abstinence. The uncle of the writer of Qasasul Ulema described an incident as follows: WONDER ACTS BY INFIDELS "I went for the pilgrimage of Imam Raza (A.S.) and stayed there for sometime. I saw a mendicant who knew the art of Taiul Arz (i.e. of covering long m es in one distances in short time as tra velliiig fifty il hour).

ANOTHER STORY Another Story is narrated to prove that Wonder Acts manifested ' by',rdne:do not prove him to be right or just. In the", times of Imam -Ja'ttLr-e-Sadiq (A.S.) a man came from Hindustan. He Could tiell what the other person was hiding in his hands. This; news reached Imam Ji'far-e-Sadiq (A.S.) and he summoned him. "Hiding something in' his hand. the Imam asked, "Say what is in my hand ?" After thinking and meditating for some, time 'he replied : .Such' and' such thing is in your hand." H' is guess was correct and the Imam (A.S.) confirmedi his answer. Then Imam (A.S.) said that once again I he would hide something in his hand, saying this the Imam (A.S.) put his hand out of his window for a while, then pulled itbackland inquired whatiwas inililsha'nd ? He meditated and thoughtlbut he could. not Ruess what'the Imam had in his hand. Aft After a long ong time of meditati ating he said that hat on such uch and such uch island in Indialsuchtand;such bird has an egg missing from its nest. Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (A.S.) opened his hand and said "Your guess is correct." Imam Ja'ffir-e-Sadiq (A.S.) then inqu inquir ired: ed: "Fro "From m wher wheree did did you you lear learn n this this art art ?" He repl replie ied, d, "I act act cont contra rary ry to what 4mY soul tells me, and by acting in thismanner l have mastered this art." Imam Ja'far-e-Sadiq (A.S.). asked ','Does your soul advocate Islam or .jPaganis;n He replied, "Paganism" Imam (A.S.) said, "In this matter why don't you go against your soul ?" He said : "I will go against my soul even in this matter and embrace Islam." Saying this he become a Muslim. Imam asked him if he could still guess anything ? He replied in negative. Imam Ja'far-e-Sadiq (A.S.) said that, "You are right, because before you embraced Islam you had been blessed with this art as a reward to your spirit and devotion because you would not have been rewarded on the day of Judgement. But now you are a Muslim. God has reserved the requittal for the Day of Judgement and you will be rewarded there so, now your power is gone." Objection has been raised in this connection that why he was punished by God after he embraced Islam by taking away his power. He should, on the other hand, have been rewarded by God and should have increased his power, because it is stated in Quran that if any one does some good deeds, God awards at least ten times of that good act-in this world as well as much more in the Hereafter. To understand the correct position it is necessary to take into consideration the following facts (1)Every man has been given independence by God to act rightly or wrongly without any intervention from God, after he has been given a guidance. (2)The disbelievers are rewarded in this very world for their good actions (if any) ; while tnuslims are rewarded both in this world and the Hereafter. (3)There are some acts which have far-reaching effects and cannot be recompensated adequately in this world.
(4)Men are generally misled by wealth and luxuries of this world. Hence God deprives most of His obedient servants from the wealth and luxuries of life in this world. This is His favour and not a punishment. He knows best as to how He , should behave with a particular man. (5)God has created some such powers in man which can be developed through constant, systematic and regular practice and man can do wonders after developing these hidden powers in him. If a man uses them for a good he' deserves good reward otherwise he is liable to chastisement. (6)The abovementioned infidel also developed his will power, but instead of utilising it for good purposes, purposes, he used it As amusement, amusement, became proud and at last challenged challenged the Holy Imam. (7)He was deprived of that power after embracing Islam because there is no place in Islam for such juggleries and undesirable acts. Islam demands good deeds, purity of heart and piety from a muslim. If he performs good deeds and is pious, he would deserve good reward in this world and in the Hereafter according to the nature of his actions, RitALITY OF WONDER ACTS n the spirit Allah has given ma y powers to or soul and!,a person who exerts himself and awakens dormant potentwities, can perform such feats that are quite 'out'of the norm. For examplc,,some peoplellare gifted with-Telepathy,'i.e. conveying their thoughts to others. Some can foresee-and-forecast events of future. These ,equalities are rare, but cannot be termed as spiritual or supernatural. So they should not be confused with Wonder Acts or Miracles. Even Wonder Act (Karamat) is not of the status of Miracle. Wonder Acts are gifts of Allah bestowed upon persons who suppress the desires of the self to attain a high spiritual position through devotedness to Allah. Sometimes Wonder Acts are manifested by persons who are not at all spiritual or devoted. Such persons gain their power through some other forces which maybe even evil and are certainly not divine. Miracles are exclusively for Prophets and Imams who were Masoomeen (Infailibles) and were manifested manifested only when proof of Prophethood Prophethood or Imamate Imamate was very necessarily necessarily required to be presented. Wonder Act as stated above, can occur through evil forces even, hence it cannot be a proof of righteousness righteousness.. It may'lbe sorcery sorcery (magic), (magic), or, influence of some evil spirits. spirits. Sometimes tit so happens ithat a,'person who is not a muslim, but exercises self restraint and suppresses the worldly desires of the, 'self' achieves a state of ',getting 'insight' of . 'the things stud, events ; this is his worldly reward alone for abstaining from evil and self restraint and suppression of,. -passion. Hence, to differentiate, between a true - and false Wonder Act, ono of the criteria and, touchston,e is the conductr ,and personality of s the performer of Wonder Act. If he is a devout person, following the true path of Shtriat, I ru the phenomena can be a't e Wonder Act, otherwise otherwise it can be anything anything but Karamat (Wonder Act). A STORY OF SUPPOSED TRANSMIGRATION
Oneof Oneof the truste trustees es of Peerma Peermahom homed ed Ebrahi Ebrahim m Trust Trust recall recallss n'inci n'incident dent whichhe whichhe witnessed inlndia in 1930's. Afriend mentioned of a Hindu who claimed that.at times, the Spirit of Mitaii Datar, a famous pious Muslim whose Shrine is 'near AhihedabAd '(India), enteres his body and then he could walk on fire. The friend forcefully invited the Trustee to witness this phenomenon for himself. He did so and told his friend that it was ail ! false. Because, he argued, how could the spirit of Miran Datar, who was a pious man in his life time, enter the body of a Na)as person. (There is a difference between Ngiis and Najas. Najis things can be purified by ordinary means of purification, while Najas,,,Iike dogs :and pigs, pigs, cannot cannot be purifi purified ed by custom customary ary treatm treatment ent ofe purifi purificat cation ion even even if repeated for innumerable times. n'this' ;case of an unbeliever only acceptance of Islamic faith could purify the Hindu). SOOFISM In some groups groups of Muslims Muslims there is a belief that Soofism, Soofism, with with all 'its -diverse -diverse . creeds, creeds, is a means means of of littai littainmbnt nmbnt &f 'neatne 'neatness ss t6 t6 Allah. Allah. In Soofism Soofism there are groups groups who claim certain powers and attributes for their Shaikhs (Murshids). Some so-called Murshids claim that they have gone so ahead on the way of spirituality that they have attained ma'rifat (cognition) of Allah that they now need not follow Shariat lprecepts and practices of Islam) like Namaz (Prayers) and fastings etc. They are false claimants. An anecdote is related that a man approached a so called Soofi (mystic) and expressed a desire to come under his tutelage. The Soofi said that obedience of the Murshid without question was the first condition and he would not be able to fulfil that condition. The man promised to obey him blindly. The Soofi told him to offer his Namaz with ablution (Wuzu) performed with urine, for one week and then return to him. He agreed to the condition thinking how the Soofi would know that he did not fulfil the condition. When the man went to the Soofi after one week, he enquired whether he had offered Namaz in the way he had directed. The man replied in affirmative. The Soofi got annoyed and told him he had not done so and chased him out. TRAPS OF TRICKSTERS Many a time people get trapped when they find some forecasts and predictions come true and follow blindly such persons and ultimately ruin themselves raat"My in this world and spirituall spiritually y in the Hereafter. Hereafter. Such predictions predictions aiid false Wonder Acts. like stop,4ing trains, throwing away a watch or %ome such thing out of the window of moving trains and afterwards producing the thing back from the pocket of the owner or someone sitting there, may have been dono with the helf of evil spirits with whom they have made contact through evil ways and magic which are abhorrible and not worthy of mention. SALVATION IS ONLY IN FOLLOWING SHARIAT Shias believe that there is one and only one way to achieve the pleasure and nearness to Allah, and it is the way shown by the Prophet (S.A.) and his Progeny (A.S.). Shias are not the only sect in Islam who4 believe that Salvation is only through Shariat. A famous Soofi, Shaikh Bahauddin Zak.aria, whose Shrine at Multan is a source
of solace for many, writes in one of his books that the criterion of a true and false Soofi is Shariat. If a Soofi is a follower of Shariat-e-Mohammadi and guides his disciples to do the same, he is a true Soofi otherwise he is not a Soofi S oofi but disciple of Satan. MAGIC - SORCERY Magi Magicc is perh perhap apss the the olde oldest st atte attemp mptt of Man Man at Spiri Spiritu tual alis ism, m, rath rather er Pseud Pseudoospiritualism. Religiously speaking, as soon as Man descended on this earth Allah sent his messengers to call him to recognise the Creator. But recognition of the Deity means complete submission, without reservations. This is agreeable to the nobler side of the Soul (Nafs-e-Mutmaiu), as it is inherent in the soul to recognise Allah submit to Him and worship Him. But there is another side of the Soul, the baser side (Nafs-e m;tra), the side which inclines towards Satan, This baser instinct is easily misled, and is rebellious,. Magic is the attempt Of this rebell rebelliou iouss side side to create create a pseudopseudo-spi spirit ritual uality ity to counter counteract act divine divine spirit spiritual ualit ity.' y.' It is reported in Ayashi and Qummi on the authority of Hazrat Imam Baqir (A.S.) that after the death of Hazrat Sulaiman (A.S.) Satan wrote an incantation and buried it with his throne, and misled people that powers of Hazrat Sulaiman (A.S.) were due to this incajitiitioli. Thus were the people of Sulaiman (A.S.) made to pr'actice Magic. Allah has variously decried Magic in Holy Quran. At one place magic enchantments are called false "Then lo : it (the rod of Moses) swallowed (oae after another all) that they falsely demonstrated".(7 At another place Allah says that Magic- ig,.a wrought plan, a craft doomed to fail. "Verily they have wrought by a plan of a sorcerer, and a sorcerer shall not be successful whatsoever manner (of skill) he may come from." (20 : 69) Allah Allah has also defined defined reciting reciting incantations incantations as following devils and that practice of sorcery was taught to the people by the devils and it is infidelity (kufr). "They followed what the- devil. recital *Wsely) against Soloman's Kingdom ; not that SolomatL'disbelieved but (it was) the devils that disbeiievtd ; sorcery did they teachto man and what was revealed revealed to the-two the-two ang-bli; ang-bli; at Babylon, Babylon, Harut and Marut:.' Marut:.' (2: IL02) At another place Allah gays that sorcer6rs' do nothing but hypnotize, cast a Spell or rather create illusion (bewitch the eyes of the people). "So when they cast they bewitched the eyes of the people and terrified them and produced them a great enchantment. (7 : 116)
Allah says that sorcery does not profit anyone but gives harm. The practitioners of sorcery learn that they bargain for tortures in the life Hereafter by cou rting it. "And they learnt what harmed them and profitted them not ; and indeed they knew that he who bought that (art) had not shared in the happiness of the Hereafter. And vile was the price for which they did sell their selves, had they only known (it)." (2 : 102) Yet at another place Allah declares that mischief makers will not benefit by their work, and indeed sorcery is dispelled by Allah and can do no permanent harm. "Verily God will presently make it naught ; Verily Allah causes not to thrive the work of mischief-makers." (10 : 81) "Said Moses unto them, 'Woe unto you forge you 'not a lie against God ; lest he destroys you with his his wrath. And fails he who forges a lie." (20: 61) Abdullah bin Umar has quoted the Holy Prophet (S.A.) as having said :"There are certain magicians among my followers. Do not call on them when they are sick, de not offer funeral prayers for them when they die and do not greet them with salutations when you happen to meet them." When the people enquired as to who were these magicians the Holy Prophet (S.A.) replied : "These are those people who commit evil acts and attribute their evil actions to the Will of God, saying that they did what they were predestined by Allah to do." Abdullah bin Abbas quotes the Holy Prophet (S.A.) as having said : " No one will stand so much condemned on the Day of Judgement as the one who associates God with the evil he does say that he did what he was predestined by God to do."

SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION Scientifically such phenomena of magic, and sorcery have notyet beenexplainedand science isatalossto understandthem. Whetherinfutureitwill be able to do so remains to be seen.
One explanation has, however, been given and apart from religious and traditional point of view, is a mere hypothesis to Work on. It is as follows, Scientists are of the opinion that Man possesses many potential capabilities of which even he himself is unaware. According to them, apart from five senses of Taste, Touch, Hearing, Smell and Sight there.are other senses in the Man which lie dorment. It seems pro proba babl blee beca becaus usee we see see some someti time me a man man with with such such capa capabi bili liti ties es whic which h seem seem extraordinary. It is also a common experience that some people can foresee what is going to happen in near future. As one advances in, age,, he developes a capability'of judging characters intuitively, though he himself cannot offer any rational reason why he judges one as honest or dishonest even ev en if he is proved correct by later experience. Intuition itself is a power which varies from person to person and is quite apart from the five senses. Sometimes one becomes aversed to some person whom he has never seen before and sometimes likes without any rational explanation. All this goes to show that there are some powers in Man that can be harnessed and put to work out of ordinary. People seeing such abnormal actions call them magic. If ever this phenomena are understood they may be promoted to the status of Science. So it can be one explanation explanation of Magic that its feats are accomplishe accomplished d by harnessing harnessing such dorment powers of soul intentionally or consciously or subcon sciously. ASTROLOGY AND ASTRONOMY Astronomy is a branch of Science which deals with physical nature of cosmic bodies in heavens and universe as a whole. Like other natural sciences it has two aspects. Abstract and Applied. Abstract Astronomy deals with theoretical side origin of universe, its nature, chemical and physical speculation on?, 'Optimum conditions for existence of life in different parts] of universe, etc., etc. Applied side of the Astronomy deals with the physical observation of the structure of different' different'c,osb2i c,osb2icc bodies through Telescopes, Telescopes, Radi -o, Telescopes, Telescopes, goace exploratio exploration n or even actual landing -oi4 celestial bodies. This last mode of exploration has yet been possible' in case of Moon only. Astrology on the other hand is purely speculative in nature and is mysticism of a sort. The first premise put forth by its supporters is that stars and planets affect the life of people of this earth. If given a penetrating thought, it becomes obvious that Astrology date datess back back to the the peri period od when when peop people le thou though ghtt the the star starss to be gods gods.. Assy Assyri rian ans, s, Babylonions Babylonions and Eygptiai Eygptiaiig ig did much much to "Perfec "Perfect" t" calculati calculations ons based based on i 'e I m o'v 'a M,6,n celestial bodies.
The basis of this thought, the same premise that stars, gods or no gods, do affect the lives of mortals, persists in this 20th century even. Though the world has changed. Now modern Astrologers talk about Radiation, Magnetic waves etc. and harp on the same. strings that stars do affect the fortunes of people., - The bases of calculation remain the same as worked out five or six thousand years ago. Astrologers think that all planets, 7 in number (no-w (no-w nine), nine), move along along a belt called called Zodiac. Zodiac. This Zodiac, Zodiac, is divideddivided- in, 12 Houses or, "Burooi". Every House has -distinctive, characteristics and has direct link with some aspect of human life wealth, poverty, children, etc These stars have been arbitrarily given good and bad attributes. Astrologers have,cartain calculations according to which they judge a person to belong to some House and predict the main events of his life on a sheet which is called Horoscope. SHOULD ASTROLOGY BE RELIED' UPON ? Whether it should be relied upon or not or it serves any useful purpose, people go after finding out a true Astrologer by spending a lot of money but let us examine to what purpo se. Assuming that one finds out a true Astrologer who correctly tells future, what benefit or loss one derives therefrom ? If the Astrologer forecasts for one that he would_ become very big person or miiiionnairewithin 2 to 5yearsor-any periodnamed. Of course this would be a very good news but the anxiety and suspense it would bring, would be terr terrib ible le and may may make make the the pers person on very very unha unhappy ppy and even even driv drivee him him mad. mad. He, He, in anticipation of acquiring position and/or riches may incur debts which may lead him to troubles if the prophecy does not come true or is delayed. In another way if the prophecy is for any thing bad, i.e. any calamity, financial or physical ' i.e. accident within cer tgcin tgcin r: period ' the person would become unhappy in advance And in' trying to avert which cannot be averted if destined goes into lot of expenses and anxiety which may also drive him mad besides making him unhappy. It is argued that if one would come to know in advance of any calamity he could do some Sada4a (Charity) (Sadqa Bala Rad- Calamity. can. be averted by giving Sgdaqei). It is true but why Sadaqa should not be given without anticipating any calamity. OTHER METHODS OF FORESEEING FUTURE Islam does not favour the farseeing of future. It is totally forbidden to take augury or omen through any medium and believe in it. The reason for it being forbidden forbidden is obvious. obvious. If any one presages presages or comes to know anyhow about future happenings he will either try to, forestall, prevent or hasten the same according to his whim, fancy or liking. If he comes to know about coming of any misfortune, he will try to avoid it though that calamity might be one, which if happened would have warded off a greater calamity in store for him. By avoiding that lesser evil he might expose him to that greater calamity about which he knew nothing. AN ANECDOTE FROM MASNAVI MAULANA ROOMI Maulana Jalaluddin Roomi has narrated a story in his great Masnavi. It runs as follows:
A man requested the Prophet of his time to pray to Allah to grant him power of understanding the sounds (dialects) of all the Animals. The Prophet tried to dissuade him from it saying that what Allah has hidden from His creatures is not to be discovered, as there may be harm in it. The man insisted. On the request of the Prophet Allah gave that man the power he sought. On his return, he heard his dog complaining to his, cock that he did not got enough food. The cock replied that he should not worry as on the following day a goat belonging to his master would die and the dog would have his fill. Oh, hearing this the man disposed off the goat and thus prevented the loss. Next day he overheard the dog complaining and calling the cock a liar. The cock replied that it was not a liar. The goat did die but the master was shrewd and sold dff the goat which died in the house of the new owner. But the dog was not to worry as now the turn was that of his horse. The man at once got rid of the horse in similar manner. manner. Then the turn of his camel and slave came. When the slave also died in the house of his new,owner, the dog said to the cock that it was certainly a liar, as all his forceasts proved untrue. The cock replied that it was not a liar. The master acted foolishly. In fact there were two- men in that town and it was ordained by Allah that one of them was to die and for the man owing all these things was to suffer slight monetary loss by the death of his pet goat. He averted that loss by selling it. Then his horse was to die as it was to be that he suffered a loss. He averted that loss too by disposing off his horse, and so was the case of camel and the slave. The man averted those tosses by getting rid of them. On the other hand the man whose time was up unconsciously bought all those things which were to die by the will of Allah and sustained monetary losses one after the other. So the fates changed. The man who was to die would now live and the man who tried to change his fate was to die on the following day. The moral of this story, states Maulana Roomi, - hat, one should not try to ftnd out what is in store ".,him in fttture. If it were the will of Allah to. give ' wer of foreseeing future. He would have bestowed upon him this power. But in some matters.ignorano, is bliss.

Similarly, the unbelievers-Hindus and aboriginals allover the world where the exist, who resort to the profession of witch-craft, clai m to nerform imilar acts by chanting 'mantars' (spells) and invokin& ties which are devillish in nature; w hile the are for goodor canbe evil purposes, the. latteratemadc use of.for bad and destructive matters., Jutt as mystics claim to control the 'MUWAKALS' the.,Hindus claim to control 'Bair. Agaih, we find the same thing in Greek mythology - there they have two kinds of'gods-for good purpose and for evil purpose. They claim to get their work done-either for the fulfilment of their desires or for suppressing and subduing their enemies-by incantations and invoking the respective gods. In both the Hindu and Greek mythology, one will find strange, fantastic and purely imaginative forms of their so-called gods or deities. If seriously considered and logically analysed it will be found that such Wonder Acts are' either mere illusions and hallucination or the psychological effects created by Autosuggestion or mass su gge stion dubbed on the victims. Magic, Sorcery' Astrology, and some' Occult Sciences are in fact attempts of Man toward towardss spiri spiritua tualis lism m but through through means means contrar contrary y to Divine Divine injunc injunctio tions. ns.

Astr Astrol olog ogy y is based based on wron wrong g assu assump mpti tions ons.. Th Thee calc calcul ulat atio ions ns made made on thes thesee assumptions cannot be relied upon. Moreover, Islam does not allow such attempts to foresee future through so-called Occult Sciences. Subjugation of spirits, Muwwakils, Bair, etc., is also claimed by some persons, both Muslims and nonMuslims. But on analysis analysis the most that can be said with certainty is that mostly the 4e, am illusions and psychological effects. WHAT A MUSLIM SHOULD DO ? We have clearly shown most of the persons claiming to ward off effects of magic are either false or designing persons who have only one object, in their minds -- to extort money in the name of "curing" persons from the evil effects of magic. In fact they fleece innocent people. People are strongly advised not to fall prey to such tricksters and quacks. Authenticity of Taweez and Doa's given by them is not known. Our Holy Prophet (S.A.) and the Imams ' have taught us many Doa's which if recited as - prescribed will surely benefit the sufferer of Magic-Inshaallah. DOA' No. 23 OF SAHIFA-E-KAMELA BY HAZRAT IMAM ZAINUL ABEDEEN (A.S.) The following Doa' is from Sahifa-e-Kamela, of Imam Zainul Abodeen (A.S.).* This,Doa' is for safety from all ills, witchcrafts, diseases and oppression. When needed, it may -be recited after any wajib prayer daily till the affliction is removed. It is better to keep one fixed time for its recitation, e.g. if one starts to recite it after morning prayer one should always recite recite after morning morning prayer prayer till the purpose is served. served. i.e. the affliction affliction is removed or danger has passed, one should offer two rakat namaz and recite this Doa' with intention to offer thanks.

The so-called diviners have their paid agents who indirectly canvass for them and know the &.,ires of the victims and tell them so that when the victims approach them for the solution of their difficulties they. foretell them and secure their confidence whereby to, squoeze,them. One instance may here be quote that a dismissed Railway Station Master who knew morse siggaiii ng gathered some accomplices and taught them morse code and he biinswf made his abooe on a tree. These accomplices used to sing Bhajans accompanied by tick tick of morse signalling by which they informed him the desire of the victims visiting from whom thty-first usedtofindouttheirdesire6. Before the victims disclosed their desires he used to tell them their desires. -rhe victinn thus had coiifidence in him an,,i thus allowed themselves to be fleeced Once a Station Master who also knew more more sign signal alli ling, ng, visi visite ted d and and when when the the acco accomp mpli lices ces star starte ted d info inform rmin ing g him him mors morsee signalling he understood- and he was expos6d ,.vith Oiqgrace. But in fact, Our Imams (A.S.) have ta ught many doa's for eacb and every such need. Readers are advised to see books Doa in 5 Volumes, published by PEERMAHOMED EBIJARIM TRUST, KAPACHI-5. They will find Doas for practically practically ever legitimate legitimate y purpose, purpose, in these Volumes. Volumes. In Volume Volume No. there are Merits Merits Of ooras of the I Holy Quran. These merits will tell the xe!Oer when and how a soora could be recited for certain purposes. Readers m a also see Mafatih-ul-Jinan, a collection of Doas and supplications. It is available in Urdu Language, with Book Setlers. SEEKING HELP OF TRICKSTERS IS A SIGN OF WEAK FAITH Many a weak-minded men, specially women, being the victims of their own whims, consider every evil even or misfortune an insinuous act of their enemies on them. Consequpntly, to find its solution they revert to so-called Palmists, Astrologers and others who claim to divine (find out things through spiritual powers) by seeing 'Faal'. Most of these persons being very Shrewd and keen observers of human nature, describe the socalled divination in cautious, obscure and ambiguous terminology yet so cleverly that the people approaching yo the I m unconsciously become their prey. Such diviners are only vily imioney grabbers They live as parasites on simple minded people. What is the sense in opening
the 'Faal' to know who his done this or that that ? Who is the the cause of mischief ? Or for that purpose, *hat is in store for them in future ? Besides this seeing "Faal" is haram (prohibited) in Islam. WHAT HA.ZRAT ALI (A.S.)
