Visiting a Claimed Spiritual healer person...

[faithfulsist]

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

My question is about,that there are many physics/clairvoyants/spiritual healers out there, and I know the ruling on this , and what the Quran says, and know the regard towards this kind of works comes from Jinns etc.

Say a person visits one of these persons for their services, and upon meeting them finds that they are infact Muslim, at least practising it seems, and pays the person an amount so that they can carry out their work...
Being that which is to help a person re-unite with a boyfriend/ girlfriend and with the intent to marry the ex boygriend/girlfriend, who is also a muslim.

The " Healer" asks for a picture, name, date of birth etc of the person wishing to come back to the person paying the healer.. and says 2 weeks is the time that it will happen within, the boyfriend/ girlfriend come back to you.
And immediately 2 weeks after the ex boyfriend/ girlfriend or friend, makes contact ( text mesages only) to the person, wishing to come back to them and claiming their love and everything etc
But 6 months later and the ex boyfriend/ girlfriend has not made one phonecall to the person, but the bizarre text messages continue, with continued promises that they will be together soon, and excuses are made all the time etc.

For the record, the person paying for the services of the Spiritual healer acclaimed, was made certain by the healer that the ex boyfriend/ girlfriend definitely loved him/ her and that he would use prayers in the night, with candles etc and prayer the Tasbih, and only once or twice ask the person to do certain things like which were, to open his/ her window some days, to wear perfume makka flower from Saudi, and think of his ex bf/gf, and to carry a talisman for one week only.
The person made clear that they did not want to force or do something evil upon this person, and that it had to be free will only, if the person loved them back then they would return with the intent of proposing marriage to them, bear in mind this person has been love with person for 3 years, and there are circumstances unique which kept them apart, nothing to do with them to relationship with eachother.

, So under Islamiccally speaking what is the possibility that:

A) This Spiritual Healer is genuine
B) This events can happen; that the ex-boyfriend or girlfriend can indeed be making contact to the person.
C) It is acceptable under Islam, if this acclaimed person is Muslim and is using Witr to make this happen, by solemnly praying to Allah knowing that these 2 peoples love eachother.
D) To what extend does it alter Al Qadr (FATE) , because it could be similar to DUA which asks to change the course of one's life.
E) What to do to after the 6 months, still no marriage or contact from the person to face to face, should made Dua this person calls and propose or Acknowledge it is Allah's way and make Dua to forget this has happen in 6 months.

Jazakallahu Khair,

Wa'alaykum 'Assalam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu


All Praise be to Allah who is the Lord of the Worlds, and may Endless Blessings be showered upon His Most Beloved, and Final Messenger of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa 'aalihi wa Sallam

There are many soothsayers or if you would like to call them 'spiritual healers', who are in existent, and it is not necessary that any of them comply to the religion of Islam, yet what they may predict, or do, may become true.

In Islam, we do not believe, or adhere to, or refer to, such persons who carry out their tasks, that do not conform to either the Qur'an and the sunnah, or the shar'iyyah. If it does, then there maybe a case of genuinity in it, so long as the person who is advising is a practising and a knowledgeable person.

It is also a condition, that he provides his services solely, and only for the sake, and pleasure of Allah the Almighty, that he does not intend to make it a business for the sake of generating a source of income, nor fame, nor any other desire which would otherwise be prohibited for that particular intention.

The event that you have mentioned is possible. The man and woman (here I shall use these words, as 'girlfriend' and 'boyfriend' are out of the context of the shar'iyyah, and are therefore void, and disallowed) can in fact meet by either physical contact by the person himself, or contact by phone and message, or by a third person representing the third party. In any case this is not at all impossible for a person who is paid to provide his services.

There are some cases which are acceptable. Those that comply with the shar'iyyah, for example, 2 persons who love each other who have never spoke to each other, nor have they met each other, nor have they ever communicated with each other, therefore have never broken the rules of the shar'iyyah, as opposed to those persons who have been out with each other, have had sexual relations with each other, and regularly are in contact with one another, carries a great difference, for a service to be provided for the correct sort of people.

It would be quiet absurd to pray, make amulets, use witr, for the latter 2 types of people who have never learned a thing about religion, always discarded it, ignored the commandments of the Almighty, and His Beloved Messenger Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam but when they have problems, they come running to them, hoping that their case would be genuine, when in reality, they themselves know that what wrong they had done was behind closed doors, so the obvious thing would be to seek advice behind closed doors, and not to make it look genuine, especially if it involves a genuine person having to deal with it, who has no alternative, but to help you.

Alternatively, it is possible that the person prevents this from happening, by not letting this happen in future, if there has been any sin, which would be the wise thing to do.

What would make it worst then, if the person providing the service, is in reality a person who is not legitimate, but one who is performing solely for the pleasure of money and fame, instead of the pleasure of the Almighty Allah, and His blessed Messenger Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam. At this stage it will be unacceptable, at any rate.

But if he is genuine, then the prevention measure would be acceptable, as opposed to the contact, which this whole question is about.

It does not alter fate at all, but fate is altered by the person who beholds it. If Allah the Almighty has given us the opportunity to do either right or wrong, then the reigns of fate are within our own hands, and it is we, who can alter it. It is we who can either make it good, or it is we, who can make it bad. Unless there is some special and divine attribute (fadl), which is cast upon us by Allah the Almighty, His Messenger Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, or by one of His chosen serveants, but this is very rare in such a case.

If nothing happens, then it is not in your will or destiny, and Allah the Almighty did not have it planned, for it to happen for you. He will show you many other paths from which you could choose, but it is for you to understand this, and to accept this, because Allah the Almighty may not want for something to happen to you, which otherwise would have occurred to you, had the 2 persons met, but rather He may want it to prevent it from happening to you, and by granting you something else, which you should realise, and not look into the excuse or reason, in saying why did it not happen?

Some mysteries are better not resolved.

May Allah the Almighty keep us under His protection, and may He help us all to be strong practising Muslims, who lead the life the way a Muslim should, and may He prevent us from asking that which is inevitable, insha'Allah, thus making us strong, granting us a shadow from the manifestation of His Blessed attribute. (Amin).


Jazak'allah for your question.
