Question:
The questioner says: Some ruqah practitioners seek the help of Muslim jinn, and they cite some reports from the Companions,
Answer:
saying, "Shadrik is a Muslim." If they say he is a Muslim, and it is not said to you that he is a Muslim, then he is a Muslim. Allah knows best. They confuse people in this matter. This is from one aspect. The second aspect is that we have forbidden seeking the help of the jinn absolutely.[Al-Jinn 72:6] We have forbidden that absolutely, so it is not permissible to seek the help of the jinn, nor to seek the help of the dead, nor to seek the help of those who are absent. This is not permissible. Yes.
