The jinn cannot be seen in their original form, and this is confirmed by Allah's saying: (Indeed, he sees you, he and his tribe, from where you do not see them). Al-Shafi'i and Ibn Hazm explicitly stated that it is not possible to see them, except for the prophets. However, the jinn can take on different forms, whether human or animal, and there is evidence for this. The appearance of the jinn in a transformed state in Ramadan does not differ from other months, and their sighting in human form during Ramadan has been confirmed in the hadith of Abu Hurayrah.
