The Stick and Intimidating the Jinn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a report that the stick intimidates the jinn, and that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to carry a spear with him for that purpose?
Answer:
I do not know of that, nor do I know. The stick is good; even with humans, it makes them tremble. It also makes snakes and wild beasts tremble. The stick is a good weapon.
