Question:
The questioner, Abdulrahman, also has another section. He says: This question has confused me, and I am asking about it. Where do the jinn reside? Where do they enter into a person? What is the difference between the jinn and the shayatin? Are they the same?
Answer:
First of all, you have no benefit from this question, but since you asked, we will answer you. We say that the jinn exist with people, but they do not see them. They exist with people, but they do not see them. They may see them in different forms, taking the form of animals, the form of snakes, the form of birds, taking different forms. They also afflict people with epilepsy; they afflict people with epilepsy. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: bare, so they are capable of mixing with humans, confusing them, and making them ill, by the permission of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), if He sends them against them. So the Muslim must maintain the performance of the obligatory duties, the five prayers, and maintain the dhikr in the morning and evening, and the prescribed recitation in the morning and evening, to protect himself from them. Especially the three surahs: al-Ikhlas and the two mu'awwidhat, al-Falaq, which contains seeking refuge from sorcery [Al-Falaq 113:4], and in Surah al-Nas [Al-Falaq 113:5], and from envy, being struck by the evil eye. If he maintains the recitation of these surahs at the beginning of the morning and the beginning of the evening, then this is what Allah protects him with from evils, calamities, and from the shayatin and the jinn. The shayatin are from the jinn. The shayatin are the worst of the jinn. The shayatin are the worst of the jinn, and their head is Iblis, may Allah curse him. Yes.

Indeed, the Shaytan runs
إن الشيطان يجريfrom the son of Adam
من ابن آدمAnd from the evil of the blowers in knots
وَمِن شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِAnd from the evil of an envier when he envies."
