Summary of Sunni concepts
Jinn and the knowledge of the unseen
Charlatans and charlatans claim to have knowledge of the unseen through communication with the jinn
It is pure slander and quackery
God Almighty said
Say: No one in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except God
This is true of everyone in the heavens and the earth
It includes all humans and jinn
Especially regarding the jinn
God Almighty said about the jinn who were subjected to the service of His Prophet Solomon, peace be upon him
When We decreed death upon him, they had nothing to do with his death except an animal of the earth that ate from his excrement
When he fell, the jinn realized that if they had knowledge of the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating torment
Before the mission of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, the jinn were listening eavesdropping from the sky
They snatch the word from the truth
They mix with it a hundred lies
They throw it into the ears of their saints, the soothsayers and fortune-tellers
As the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
When the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, was sent
It prevented the jinn from eavesdropping on the sky
God Almighty said
And We have placed constellations in the sky and decorated them for the beholders
And We protected it from every accursed devil
Except for one who eavesdrops, and is followed by a clear shooting star
And in Surah Al-Jinn
We touched the sky and found it full of strong guards and meteors
And we used to sit there in seats to listen
Whoever listens now will find a meteor waiting for him
And the Almighty said
They do not listen to the supreme council
They are pelted from all sides
They will be defeated, and they will have a severe torment
Except for the one who was snatched away and followed by a piercing shooting star
It is never permissible to believe that the jinn knows the unseen
Or believe soothsayers and fortune-tellers in what they say
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Whoever goes to a fortune teller and asks him about something
His prayers were not accepted for forty nights
