(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((مَنِ اقْتَبَسَ عِلْمًا مِنَ النُّجُومِ، اقْتَبَسَ شُعْبَةً مِنْ سِحْرٍ، مَا زَادَ زَادَ، وَمَا زَادَ زَادَ)).
(Second chain) The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever acquires the knowledge of astrology has acquired a branch of magic; the more he learns astrology, the more he increases his knowledge of magic. As the knowledge of astrology increases, so does the knowledge of magic.
