Answers: 13Subcategories: 2Belief in the Jinn, witchcraft and the evil eye
The ruling on one who denies the existence of the jinn, and the ruling on praying behind him
Can the Jinn Appear in Human Form?
The jinn may appear in human or animal form; they may appear in the form of snakes, scorpions and so on; or in the form of camels, cattle, sheep, horses, mules and donkeys; or in the form of birds. They may also appear in human form, as the devil came to Quraysh in the form of Suraqah ibn Malik ibn Ja`sham, when they wanted to go out to Badr.172,105Is Killing Snakes Allowed in Islam?
There is nothing wrong with you killing snakes that are outside the house. As for those that are found inside the house, they should not be killed until they have been warned for three days.148,358Why Was Iblis Commanded to Prostrate to Adam?
When Allah commanded the angels to prostrate to Adam, He included Iblis in that because, even though he was not one of them, he was imitating them and doing deeds like theirs.58,469Can Babies See the Angels?
Seeing the angels and the jinn, in a form other than their true form, is possible. As for suggesting that only children can see that, we do not know of any text which speaks of that. This is a matter of the unseen, and we cannot say anything about it except on the basis of evidence, and there is no evidence to deny or affirm that.14,135Is it permissible to recite ruqyah in absentia for someone?
6,936Washing the one who has been affected by the evil eye with the wudoo’ water of the one who put the evil eye on him
23,067Ruling on protecting against the evil eye by doing wudoo’ together
4,466Reading Messages on Fortune-telling: Allowed?
If someone reads the messages that contain fortune-telling and predictions for the future believing in them, then he is rightfully subject to the warning which says that he has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and that no prayer will be accepted from him for forty days.
