01) Narrated Ibn `Abbas:The Prophet (ﷺ) set out with the intention of going to Suq `Ukaz (market of `Ukaz) along with some of his companions. At the same time, a barrier was put between the devils and the news of heaven. Fire commenced to be thrown at them. The Devils went to their people, who asked them, What is wrong with you? They said, A barrier has been placed between us and the news of heaven. And fire has been thrown at us. They said, The thing which has put a barrier between you and the news of heaven must be something which has happened recently. Go eastward and westward and see what has put a barrier between you and the news of heaven. Those who went towards Tuhama came across the Prophet at a place called Nakhla and it was on the way to Suq `Ukaz and the Prophet (ﷺ) was offering the Fajr prayer with his companions. When they heard the Quran they listened to it and said, By Allah, this is the thing which has put a barrier between us and the news of heaven. They went to their people and said, O our people; verily we have heard a wonderful recital (Quran) which shows the true path; we believed in it and would not ascribe partners to our Lord. Allah revealed the following verses to his Prophet (Sura Jinn) (72): Say: It has been revealed to me. And what was revealed to him was the conversation of the Jinns.{Sahih al-Bukhari 773 & Bukhari: Vol. 1, Book 12, Hadith 740} 02) Narrated `Aisha: Some people asked Allahs Messenger (ﷺ) about the fore-tellers He said. They are nothing They said, O Allahs Messenger (ﷺ)! Sometimes they tell us of a thing which turns out to be true. Allahs Messenger (ﷺ) said, A Jinn snatches that true word and pours it Into the ear of his friend (the fore-teller) (as one puts something into a bottle) The foreteller then mixes with that word one hundred lies. {Sahih al-Bukhari 5762 & Bukhari Vol. 7, Book 71, Hadith 657} 03) IBN TAYMIYYAHS STATEMENT ABOUT JINN POSSESSION As regards treatment (of one whose body has been entered by the jinn), Ibn Taymiyah said (Majmoo’ al-Fataawa, 19/42): “When the jinn attack a person, they should be told of the rulings of Allah and His Messenger, proof should be established against them, and they should be commanded to do what is good and told not to do what is evil, just as should be done in the case of people, as Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): ‘And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning)’ [al-Israa’ 17:15].” Then he said: “If the jinn does not leave after being addressed in this manner, then it is permissible to rebuke him, tell him off, threaten him and curse him, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did with the Shaytaan when he came with a falling star to throw it in his face, and the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “I seek refuge with Allah from you and I curse you with the curse of Allah” – three times. (Narrated by al-Bukhaari). We may also seek help against the jinn by remembering Allah (dhikr) and reciting Qur’an, especially Aayat al-Kursiy. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever recites it will remain under the protection of Allah and no Shaytaan (devil) will be able to approach him until the morning.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari). And al-Mi’wadhatayn (the last two soorahs of the Qur’an) may also be recited. As for psychiatrists who do not treat the epileptic in the manner described, they cannot do him any good at all. This issue may be discussed in much more detail, but what we have said here is sufficient for those who want to know a little about this matter, Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. {Masaa’il wa rasaa’il, Muhammad Mahmoud al-Najdi, p. 23} 04) Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah s Apostle ordered me to guard the Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing of the foodstuff. I caught him and said, I will take you to Allahs Apostle! Then Abu Huraira described the whole narration and said) That person said (to me), (Please dont take me to Allahs Apostle and I will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you.) When you go to your bed, recite Ayat-al-Kursi, (2.255) for then there will be a guard from Allah who will protect you all night long, and Satan will not be able to come near you till dawn. (When the Prophet heard the story) he said (to me), He (who came to you at night) told you the truth although he is a liar; and it was Satan. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 6, Book 61, Hadith #530] 05) Aisha reported that Allahs Messenger (SAW) said: The Angels were born out of light and the Jinns were born out of the spark of fire and Adam was born as he has been defined (in the Quran) for you (i.e. he is fashioned out of clay). [Sahih Muslim, Book 42, Hadith #7134] 06) Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah s Apostle ordered me to guard the Zakat revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing of the foodstuff. I caught him and said, I will take you to Allahs Apostle! Then Abu Huraira described the whole narration and said) That person said (to me), (Please dont take me to Allahs Apostle and I will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you.)

[Sahih Bukhari, Vol 6, Book 61, Hadith #530] 07)THE FATWA OF AHMAD IBN HANBAL ABOUT JINN POSSESSION Abd-Allah ibn al-Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal said: “I said to my father, ‘There are some people who say that the jinn do not enter the body of the epileptic.’ He said: ‘O my son, they are lying; the jinn could speak through this person.’” Commenting on this, Ibn Qudamah said: “What he said is well known, because a person may suffer an epileptic seizure and speak in a language that no one understands, and his body may be beaten with blows that would fell a camel,
