The Ruling on Seeking the Help of the Jinn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh: This questioner says: What is the ruling on a person going to some of the ruqah practitioners who say that they seek the help of the Muslim jinn, or the Muslim jinni, or the angels? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
The Shaykh: These are sorcerers and charlatans, and it is not permissible to go to them; because it is not permissible to seek the help of the jinn. Seeking the help of the jinn is not permissible, nor is seeking the help of the dead, nor is seeking the help of those who are absent. One only seeks the help of the living person who is present and is capable of what you ask of him, the living person who is present and is capable of helping you with what you ask of him. As for what no one is capable of except Allah, one does not seek help for it except from Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes.
