There are many details about astrology in Islam


Mohammed peace be upon him said: “Allaah created these stars

for three purposes: to adorn the heavens, to stone the devils and as signs

by which to navigate. Whoever seeks anything else in them is mistaken

and does not benefit from them, and he is wasting his time and effort in

seeking something of which he has no knowledge.” (Saheeh al-Bukhaari,

Baab fi’l-Nujoom, 2/240)


The study of the stars is divided into two kinds:

1- Study of the influence of the stars (astrology)

2- Study of the positions and movements of the stars (astronomy)

Study of the influence of the stars (astrology) is divided into three
categories:

1 – The belief that these stars have a real influence in the sense that

they create events and evil. This is major shirk (shirk akbar), because whoever claims that there is another creator alongside Allaah is a mushrik in the sense of major shirk, for he is regarding a created thing that is subjugated as a creator which subjugates.
2 – Making this a reason to claim to have knowledge of the unseen, so from the movements and changes in the stars he deduces that such and such will happen because such and such has happened to such and such a star. For example, he may say that one person’s life will be miserable because he was born under this star, and that another person’s life will be happy because he was born under that star. This person is taking knowledge of the stars as a means to claim that he has knowledge of the unseen, and claiming to have knowledge of the unseen is kufr (disbelief) which puts one beyond the pale of Islam, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

Say: None in the heavens and the earth knows the Ghayb (Unseen) except Allaah”[al-Naml 29:65]

Why would I want to take a guess about a more insignificant part of you, your sun sign?

You Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Rising sign would tell me more.

Jack Mccullough states he'd never work for someone who'd be stupid enough to hire him based on the contents of his birthdate. Jack doesn't realize that those investigations are done very secretively, and early successes in his career or anyone's career, could be attributed to astrology.

Just keep your birthdate hidden from any new suitor. They could quickly discover your weak points and take you on a nice, bumpy ride.

In India, there's no "blind-dating". In this country, some couples are still blind-dating right up to their 50th wedding anniversaries. Look at the personal columns in India: Please send your astrological chart for consideration. Don't even bother to reply, if you don't have your chart.

The divorce rate is 50% in this country. Putting an end to all this "blind-dating" might help the statistics improve a little, using some astrology to better match people up. The divorce attorney's would hate that!
