Fatwa number ( 13957 )
Q: Can a believing person be afflicted with possession by the jinn—meaning: a jinn enters him—while he is maintaining the daily remembrances? Are there specific remembrances for protection from the jinn? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with the best reward. And peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
A: Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) commanded seeking refuge in Him (Exalted and Majestic is He) from the whispers of the devils and from their presence in a dwelling, or at food, or drink, or during intercourse. He the Exalted said:
(97) And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils, (98) And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present with me."وَقُلْ رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ (97) وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَنْ يَحْضُرُونِ
[Al-Mu'minun 23:97-98]

His is the dominion, all praise is to Him, and He is able to do all things), it will be equivalent to him freeing ten slaves, and one hundered merits will be recorded for him, and one hundered bad deeds will be erased from (his record), and it will be a protection for him against Satan all day until night comes. No one can do anything better then him except one who says more.'"من قال في يوم مائة مرة: لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد، وهو على كل شيء قدير، كانت له حرزًا من الشيطان يومه كله
