The questioner : Is it permissible for us to curse a Muslim by saying, “May Allah strike you with jinn,” because he does not believe that jinn possess a person?
The Shaykh : No, the principle is to pray for him to be guided, unless arrogance toward the truth and stubbornness become apparent from him. In that case, one resorts to what is called in some Arabic proverbs, “The last medicine is cauterization.” Do you understand?
The questioner : Yes, my lord.
The Shaykh : The principle is to pray for him to be guided, but if it becomes clear to the one making the supplication that the man is stubborn, arrogant, and rejects the truth after it has become clear and manifest, then there is no harm in cursing him. Yes.
