Do jinn take a person's money? And what is the solution?
The jinn can take from people's wealth, as mentioned in the hadith of Abu Hurayrah with the devil who was taking from the food of Ramadan's zakat. This was also narrated by al-Tirmidhi from Abu Ayyub al-Ansari regarding the ghoul that was taking from his dates. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned that the jinn steal and deceive.
To protect oneself from jinn and devils, it is recommended to recite Ayatul Kursi before sleeping, and the morning and evening adhkar, which include supplications for the preservation of family and wealth. Additionally, one should frequently recite the Holy Quran, especially Surat Al-Baqarah, because the devil flees from a house in which it is recited.
