Mankind's use of Jinn falls into three categories: forbidden (), permissible (), and use in obedience to Allah and His Messenger. Their use is permissible in permissible matters and forbidden in forbidden matters. Determining whether the use of Jinn in is permissible or forbidden depends on the type of use. However, it is preferable to completely abandon dealing with Jinn due to the potential harms that may result from it. It has not been authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) or his companions sought their assistance in Ruqyah or anything else.
