How do the jinn eavesdrop?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is the information that the jinn bring to the fortune-teller from the sky called "restricted hidden knowledge" regarding the people of the earth?

Answer:
What is it called? Restricted hidden knowledge. Restricted or hidden? And restricted hidden knowledge. What the Satan brings is not from the jinn; it is the Satan who brings it through eavesdropping. The Shayatins ride on one another in the reins, meaning in the clouds, until they listen to the speech of the angels. Then the blazing fire that Allah throws at them comes; it may catch them and burn them, or they may throw the word to one of the jinn before the blazing fire catches them. The fortune-teller lies a hundred lies along with it. The fortune-teller lies a hundred lies with the single word he heard from the angels. People believe him in everything he says because of this word that was heard from the sky. Yes.
