Seeking aid of Jinn is Shirk

7. Seeking the aid of the Jinn in identifying ‘Ayn or magic, likewise believing the Jinn who is within the afflicted person with the justification of magic or ‘Ayn and building upon his claims.
Comments: It is not permissible to seek the aid of the Jinn to ascertain the type of affliction and how to cure it because seeking the aid of Jinn is Shirk. Allah the Elevated said:
{And verily, there were men among mankind who took shelter with the masculine among the jinns, but they (jinns) increased them (mankind) in sin and disbelief} [Al-Jinn: 6]
He – the Majestic – also said:
{And on the Day when He will gather them (all) together (and say): “O assembly of jinn! Many did you mislead of men,” and their Awliyaa (friends and helpers) amongst men will say: “Our Lord! We benefited one from the other, but now we have reached our appointed term which You did appoint for us.” He will say: “The Fire be your dwelling place, you will dwell therein forever, except as Allah may will. Certainly your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing.” [Al An’aam: 128]
The meaning of each of them taking pleasure with one another is that mankind glorified the Jinn, subjected themselves to them and sought refuge with them. The Jinn in return served them and brought them what they requested; amongst this is informing them of the type of sickness and its causes which only the Jinn can see. They may lie concerning this, indeed they are not to be trusted and it is not permissible to believe them.
