question #3 Sahih Muslim 934, Book 11, Hadith 38 : How does Islam view the practice of seeking rain by stars and what is its significance in Islamic teachings?

Among my people there are four characteristics belonging to pre-Islamic period which they do not abandon: boasting of high rank, reviling other peoples’ genealogies, seeking rain by stars, and walling. And he (further) said: If the wailing woman does not repent before she dies, she will be made to stand on the Day of Resurrection wearing a garment of pitch and a chemise of mange.
