How can we reconcile between the two following hadeeths?
1 – "Whoever goes to a fortune teller and asks him about something and
believes him, his prayers will not be accepted for forty days."
Narrated by Muslim in his Saheeh.
2 – "Whoever goes to a soothsayer and believes what he says has
disbelieved in that which was revealed to Muhammad." Narrated by Abu
Dawood. The firsthadeeth does not point to kufr whereas the second
hadeeth does.
Praise be to Allaah.
There is no contradictionbetween the two hadeeth. What is meant by the
hadeeth " Whoever goes to a soothsayer and believes what he says has
disbelieved in that which was revealed to Muhammad" is that the one
who asks a soothsayer a question, believing that he tells the truth
and that he knows the unseen, has committed an act of kufr, because he
has gone against the Qur'aan in which Allaah says (interpretation of
the meaning): "Say: "None in the heavens and the earth knows theGhaib
(Unseen) except Allaah" [al-Naml 27:65]. As for the second hadeeth,
"Whoever goesto a fortune teller and asks him about something and
believes him, his prayers will not be accepted for forty days", which
was narrated by Muslim, it does not contain the words "and believes
him".
Thus we learn that if a person goes to a fortuneteller and asks him
anything, his prayer will not be accepted for fortydays, and if he
believes him, then he has committed an act of kufr.
And Allaah is the source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and
peace on our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions. End

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Does the one who goes to a fortune teller and asks him about something become a kaafir?
