The questioner : Okay, another question.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: Now, Shaykh, if it is known here in the town that there is a place containing gold, an old archaeological site with gold, but this gold seems to have been subjected to sorcery in the past, so there are jinn or something like that on it, is it permissible to go to that place and extract the jinn, and extract the gold after, for example, reciting verses or something to extract the jinn?
The Shaykh: To extract the jinn.
The questioner: I mean, to drive the jinn away from this place?
The Shaykh: Your question is confused.
The questioner : How?
The Shaykh: How did he know that there is a treasure in that place?
The questioner: Of course, I mean, frankly, one of the brothers spoke to me about this topic. He told me that he went to a cave here in Jordan in the Ghawr region.
The Shaykh: I do not care about the details. Answer the question. May Allah guide you.
The questioner: Go ahead, what is the question?
The Shaykh: Ah, may Allah have mercy on the question, because you are spreading your limbs and talking about details that waste the question for me.
The questioner: All right.
The Shaykh: I told you, how did he know that there is a treasure in that place?
The questioner: He has a map that says this place has a treasure.
The Shaykh: He has a map?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: And the Americans, the British, and the Germans have this map.
The questioner : O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : O Shaykh.
The questioner: He went to this place and found it.
The Shaykh: May Allah guide you.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Answer the question.
The questioner: All right.
The Shaykh: The map is with the Americans, the British, and the Germans?
The questioner: I do not know, Shaykh, whether it is there or not.
The Shaykh: Where did he get it?
The questioner: He got it from somewhere, I do not know where.
The Shaykh: Yes, I know, this is the work of the Shayateen (devils) if you do not know.
The questioner : How?
The Shaykh: This is the work of the jinn.
The Shaykh: Yes.
