Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question in which the questioner asks: Is it permissible for me to sit alone by myself, speaking to enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong, with the intention that the jinn present around me will hear me?
Answer:
No, I advise the humans and I rebuke the humans. As for the jinn, there are believers among the jinn who are sufficient, if Allah wills. Leave the jinn to the jinn.
