What is the ruling on transferring a jinn from one person to another with the aim of making it reveal itself and the circumstances of its entry into the first person?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

This type of work is impermissible due to the harm it inflicts upon others, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "There shall be no harm nor reciprocating harm." What was mentioned, or anything else, does not justify it. And whoever harms a Muslim without a legitimate Shar'i right has committed a great sin, for Allah Almighty says: "And those who harm believing men and believing women for [something] other than what they have earned have certainly borne a false accusation and a manifest sin."
