Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Some people treat those afflicted with sorcery by addressing the jinn and speaking with them. Is this permissible?

Answer:
This has passed you by: the one who addresses the jinn is among the sorcerers who must be killed, among the sorcerers who must be killed. And the one who seeks the help of the jinn and says that they serve him, this is of the type who must be killed, because it is major shirk (associating partners with Allah). Yes.
