The answer

It is not permissible to supplicate to angels or jinn, or to seek their aid, or to ask them for needs, as all of that is major shirk (polytheism) that expels one from the faith. Seeking help from jinn is forbidden by Islamic law because it is a means to shirk. If help is sought from other than Allah and the need is met, that is from the deception of Satan. One must seek help from Allah alone in all matters, except in tangible, apparent matters where it is permissible to ask for help from living, present humans who are capable of providing it. The possibility of flying with the help of jinn does not mean it is permissible by Islamic law, for not everything that is possible is lawful; rather, lawfulness revolves around what Allah has legislated.
