وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ اقْتَبَسَ بَابًا مِنْ عِلْمِ النُّجُومِ لِغَيْرِ مَا ذَكَرَ اللَّهُ فَقَدِ اقْتَبَسَ شُعْبَةً مِنَ السِّحْرِ الْمُنَجِّمُ كَاهِنٌ والكاهنُ ساحرٌ والساحرُ كافرٌ» . رَوَاهُ رزين
“If anyone acquires a section of the science of the stars for a purpose other than what God has mentioned he has acquired a branch of magic. The astrologer is a kahin, the kahin is a magician, and the magician is an infidel.”
Razin transmitted it.

Chain Data Audit In Progress
Narrator-chain data on this hadith is being actively audited against canonical sources (sunnah.com, dorar.net). Some chains in our database may differ from the canonical isnad pending review. Treat the family tree below as a working analysis, not a definitive scholarly source.
About these grades Grades shown above reflect specific scholars' assessments of the chain of transmission (isnad). They do not judge the Prophet's words. In Sunni tradition, all Companions of the Prophet are held to be upright (al-Sahaba kulluhum 'udul); any weakness in a chain originates with a later transmitter or a break in the chain, not with the Companion.
