Question:
Salaam,
Shaykh hope you are well I have some questions as I was looking at this channel and it shows people having experiences with paranormal activity in real life situations. They say they hear sounds and things like a little girl talking and sounds like people are talking. But also they hear grunts like there’s an animal there. I know we as Muslims believe in jinns, but do we believe in ghosts and human spirits? And sometimes they bring psychics to their houses and they are able to explain that there are people or a certain person in this house, a man, girl, old women. How do they do that, how can they see who it is? How do Awliya be able to see them also? Whats the difference?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Why bother yourself with these things? Allah (swt) mentioned jinn and we believe in that. If they come in form of ghosts, OK, they are jinn. Be nice to them and they will be nice to you. Don’t give them bad titles, as there are mumin jinn.
