The ruling on the claim that the jinn flee upon seeing a wolf?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It has become widespread among the common people and some reciters that when a person afflicted by the jinn comes to them, they bring a wolf and say, "It has been established with us through experience that the one possessed by the jinn, if he sees the wolf, the jinn comes out, and this has been witnessed by trustworthy people." They say, "We do not believe in the wolf, but it has become customary in medicine through experience, and it is established that the wolf expels the jinn?"
Answer:
This is a matter for consideration. The original ruling regarding treatment is that it is permissible with anything that is from the permissible things, if it has been tried and it benefits. This is the principle in treatment.
And the fact that it flees from the wolf and the jinn comes out of the person when he sees the wolf is something they claim. This leads to believing in the wolf, and hanging its skin as some people do, or hanging its head.
And what I see is that it should be left; so that disasters do not occur by believing in the wolf and that it causes the cure of the insane, and the most likely case is that these are superstitions from their superstitions.
