What are the signs of jinn and demon possession?

Before I go ahead and give you an overview of the symptoms of jinn or demonic possession, let me mention that the existence of jinns and other metaphysical entities isn’t something one can question. Allah (SWT) says in the Quran وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ “I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me.” (Quran 51:56) While Jinns, like human beings, have been created to conduct prayers and carry out good work, they are also independent to do what they will. Their reward and punishment are reprieved until the day of judgment; but as long as they are in this world, they are free to either carry out the good work or wreak havoc. Djinns, like humans, aren’t inherently good or bad but they become one in the process of life. What is unique about these entities though is that their power is far greater and […]

What are the different types of possession (by Jinn, demon, and evil entities)?

There are many forms of jinn possession; some of them are transitory, others constant, still others partial or regional.

Removing Jinn and Evil Spirit Possession Through Ruqya

In modern society, the symptoms of Jinn possession may be categorized as parapsychological or paranormal. However, according to the Quran and Sunnah the existence of evil jinn — shaytan — is firmly established. The word jinn has occurred more than 29 times in the Quran and its close synonym “shaytan” (the plural form “shayateen”) has been used more than 80 times! What’s more, there’s a whole surah called Surah al-jinn that talks in detail about jinns and how they can divert believing people from the right path: “And thus, we have made for every prophet an enemy – devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring to one another decorative speech in delusion. But if your Lord had willed, they would not have done it, so leave them and that which they invent.” (Quran Al An’am 6:112). This makes it clear that the existence of these mysterious entities is rooted in the […]
