Can jinn see humans, and is there a book whose reading causes jinn to touch its reader?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The jinn see people, as Almighty Allah says: "Indeed, he sees you, he and his tribe, from where you do not see them." It is permissible to conceal the private parts of the children of Adam from the eyes of the jinn by saying "Bismillah (in the name of Allah)" when entering the lavatory. There is no book that causes jinn possession to its reader.
