It is narrated from the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about soothsayers, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are nothing." The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, sometimes they tell of something that turns out to be true?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is a word of truth which a jinn snatches away, then he pours it into the ear of his friend (the soothsayer) like the cackling of a hen, and then they mix a hundred lies into it."
