The answer

What is said about the "Zuhari person" is mere superstition and charlatanism with no basis in truth. There are no scientific or religious facts to support claims about their birth under air signs, or their possession of distinctive physical marks, or their descent from jinn, or their ability to see treasures. All of these are tricks of the devils. Furthermore, horoscopes and stars have no effect on a person's characteristics, and the assertion that they influence the traits and conditions of newborns is invalid in Islam. As for the claim that reading the Qur'an enables a person to see jinn, that is a lie and a falsehood. The principle is that a human does not see jinn, and if the Qur'an is recited over someone possessed or bewitched, the jinn is harmed and usually departs, not that the recitation makes a person see them. Regarding the seeing of treasures, that is often a trick used by sorcerers who draw close to the jinn through polytheism and disbelief to access treasures. Therefore, one should focus on beneficial knowledge and righteous deeds, for protection from jinn comes through obedience and remembrance.
