What is the solution to stop jinn from stealing money and gold from the house, bearing in mind that these thefts often occur in the week during which Surat Al-Baqarah is not recited, and can jinn return the stolen money and gold?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Satan has the ability to steal things, as narrated in the story of Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) with Satan. However, Satan cannot open a closed door if the name of Allah is mentioned when closing it, as indicated by the prophetic hadiths. Therefore, one must mention the name of Allah when closing the money safe and regularly recite Ayat al-Kursi to ward off devils. It is also advisable to take additional precautions such as changing the password and installing surveillance devices, due to the possibility of another person opening the safes. As for recovering stolen items from the jinn, there is no specific way to do so other than increasing supplication and seeking refuge with Allah Almighty. Moving to a new house might be a solution if the loss of money persists.
