Is it permissible to publish a video in which a jinn claims to fear Sheikh Ibn Baz during a Ruqyah, knowing that jinn may lie?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Conveying what the jinn says through the mouth of a human is not religiously forbidden, and scholarly books are full of such reports, for reassurance, not for absolute belief. However, for reasons of benefit and wisdom, it is advisable to refrain from disseminating such news and videos in this era, where minds have weakened and understandings have become shallow. This often leads to accusations of falsehood, distortion of the image of preachers and scholars, and people shunning them. Therefore, it is necessary to limit dissemination to clear and well-established matters of religion.
