How should one warn the snakes that are in the houses?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : How is the process of warning carried out?
The Shaykh : It is ordinary speech, just as if a person were understanding you. Because if it is a harmful animal, it does not understand you, but if it is a jinn, the jinn hear and understand, and so on. This is the secret behind adopting this method: if it is a jinn taking the form of a snake, it will hear the speech, understand it, and know that if it persists in defiance after this warning, it will be killed. It will respond to the warning and will not return to the house. However, if it is one of the pests, it is an animal that does not hear or understand. So it is as if a person is in front of you and you speak to him, and he understands you. This snake, if it is a jinn, also understands you. This is the secret.
