Continuation of the discussion on the issue of human interaction with the jinn.

The Shaykh : The point is, I do not know that Allah (Mighty and Majestic), as you said—and the responsibility lies with the narrator, of course—I do not know that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) has forbidden the Muslim jinn from helping the Muslim humans. Where did you get that from? But if you reverse it, it is forbidden for Muslim humans to seek the help of the jinn, and this is very clear. Why? Because the essential difference that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) mentioned, as we heard from you just now, in the verse , is that they can do us good or harm in ways that we are unable to do the same for them, whether good or harm. Therefore, the Lawgiver has forbidden Muslims from seeking the help of the jinn, as He told us in the verse. And the brother who did not hear it, let us hear it with him. He said, Exalted is He: , meaning toil and misguidance. So it is not permissible to seek the help of the jinn in any way. And I have mentioned in some sessions and some recorded tapes that in every era, new innovations, sins, and transgressions occur that did not exist before. I have witnessed three categories that I believe, with certainty, are a result of humans cooperating with the jinn, but the forms have multiplied. As the poet said, "The causes have multiplied, but the death is one." Yes. The first misguidance that spread in Europe, and then its contagion spread to the Islamic lands, just as every epidemic that spreads there must transfer to the lands of Islam and affect those among them who did not have immunity. The immunity is in faith and responsiveness to the rulings of the Islamic Shari'ah. The first of these is what you must have heard about, and perhaps some of you have witnessed some incidents of this type, which is known as magnetic hypnosis. You have heard of it, right? Magnetic hypnosis. I have read a lot about it, but I have never attended a session; it was not granted to me. Now, you do not hear much about it; there is no longer much magnetic hypnosis. What is the reason? It has been replaced by another affliction, which is called spirit summoning. I have read a lot, especially the book by Tantawi Juwairy, a large volume—Ameen, Ameen, Ameen—we seek refuge in you, O Professor, may Allah forgive him. Welcome, welcome, welcome, and peace be upon you, welcome, greetings.
