Question

My question is related to astrology. I wanted to know if being aware or checking the compatiblilty of me and my partner is haraam or not? I know that believing in palmistry and fortune telling is a sin but my question is just that. Checking the traits of a certain zodiac man or checking someone's compatibility with you is haram or not? Is it kufr?

Answer

This has no basis in islaam. Believing in this is Haraam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
