-
I have heard many stories about the jinn kidnapping human beings. I
read a story which said that a man ofthe Ansaar (may Allaah be pleased
with him) went out to pray 'Ishaa' and the jinn took him prisoner and
he was lost for years. Is this possible – I mean that the jinn could
kidnap a human being?
Praise be to Allaah.
With regard to the question of possibility, itis possible, but it is
very rare. Shaykh 'Abd-Allaah ibn Jibreen (may Allaah preserve him)
answered this question as follows:
That is possible. It is well known that Sa'd ibn 'Ubaadah was killed
by the jinn when he urinated in a hole in which was their dwelling
place, and they said, "We have killed theleader of Khazraj Sa'd ibn
'Ubaadah; we struck him with an arrow and we did not miss his heart."
At the time of 'Umar, a man was kidnapped by the jinn and stayed with
them for four years, thenhe came back and told the people that some
mushrik jinn had kidnapped him, and he stayed with them as a prisoner,
then some Muslim jinn launched a campaign against them and defeated
them, and brought him back to his family. This was mentioned in Manaar
al-Sabeel and elsewhere.
(See Manaar al-Sabeel, 2/88. The story of the kidnapped man was
reported by al-Bayhaqi (7/445-446) and its isnaad was classed as
saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Irwaa', 6/150, no. 1709).
