Question:
asslamalaykum my dear shaykh
i would like to know if a pious human and jinn can fall in love with each other without being possessed. i have known a pious jinn for a year. he has changed my life. he has cured my depression. we both have very strong feelings for each other, and i am 100% sure that i am not possessed. i know this might be haram in islam because we are from different worlds. please i would like to know your opinion.
Answer:
Alaykum as-Salam,
It is possible according to the majority of the scholars but it opens the door to many problems including possession which might not be evident at first, then it becomes too late to solve them. Hence they found it abhorrent.
Pious jinn are uninterested in interacting with human beings and similarly pious human beings have no interest in jinns. All cure is from Allah Most High, all the jinns and human beings in the world cannot lift a finger if it were not for His permission.
