Fear of being touched by the jinn and whether that is shirk (associating partners with Allah)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does the fear of the jinn harming a person indicate shirk (associating partners with Allah)?

Answer:
He should seek refuge in Allah from the jinn and recite the morning and evening adhkar (remembrance of Allah); by the permission of Allah, the jinn will not harm him. He fortifies himself with dhikr (remembrance of Allah). Yes.
