Does the saying of Allah the Exalted, “And I had no authority over you except that I called you…,” indicate that the jinn do not possess humans?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the evidence for the possession and affliction of humans by Satan? And in the saying of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He,[Ibrahim 14:22], is there an indication that there is no possession or affliction?
Answer:
No, the verse does not indicate that. The verse indicates that they followed him without being coerced; they followed him without being coerced. So he blames them for this and instills sadness in their souls as a form of torment, and may Allah protect us from that.
As for the evidence for the affliction of humans by the jinn, the explicit verse is[Al-Baqarah 2:275]. The affliction by the jinn, yes.
Reality confirms this; reality confirms that the jinn mixes with the human, yes. He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, why do the polytheists say the Messenger is mad? What does “mad” mean? That a jinn has mixed with him. They admit to the affliction of humans by the jinn and claim that the Messenger has some of this, yes.
