The effect of omitting the invocation when entering the place of relief
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it true that the one who enters the place of relief and does not say this invocation, "In the name of Allah," is seen by the jinn among the devils, and they see his 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered)?
Answer:
It is not a defect; rather, it is sufficient that they merely watch him. In fact, they may harm him and confuse his mind. Many people are afflicted with madness and insanity due to the meddling of the devils and jinn. Had he used the remembrance of Allah before entering, he would have been safe from their evil.
