Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, speak, my brother.

The questioner : Hello.

The Shaykh : Speak, speak, I am listening to you.

The questioner : Regarding dealing with the Muslim jinn in permissible matters.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : I live in the al-Hajj Hasan suburb, and I have some brothers among those who say that this thing is forbidden, so I wanted to seek your fatwa on this issue.

The Shaykh : What do you mean by dealing with the jinn, my brother?

The questioner : The Muslim jinn.

The Shaykh : We Muslims are not even able to deal with one another as we should.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : So how do you want to deal with the jinn, who are of another creation and are unseen? What do you mean by dealing with them?

The questioner : Summoning them through verses of the Qur'an.

The Shaykh : They are not summoned.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Man today is not Sulayman (peace be upon him) who could summon them. It is not permissible, in short.

The questioner : It is not permissible, you mean.

The Shaykh: No, it is not permissible.
