Does the reciter strike the non-mahram woman possessed by a jinn?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He asks: Is it permissible for one who reads to a jinn to touch a non-mahram woman if he needs to do so?
The Shaykh : Well, how does he need to do this?
The questioner : I am afraid he will strike her and kill her. I am afraid he will kill her, and she is a jinn.
The Shaykh : In any case, the important point is that striking is not obligatory with the hand. I mean, if it were necessary to strike with a stick, but we cannot issue a fatwa to that effect. A person would come, seek Allah's forgiveness, and not know what he is doing. Who will be destroyed by this disobedience, O servants of Allah? And he is saying, "I strike the jinn."
