The Flowing of the Shaytan is Real

The Flowing of the Shaytan is Real


Question :

"Indeed the Shaytan indeed flows through the son of Adam just as blood flows through him."

Is the flowing described here physical or spiritual?


Answer:

Though we don't see it, and though we don't know thereality of it, the flowing described is physical and real. At some level, there is a mixture, whereby a Jinn mixes with and enters the body of a human, and the effects of that are seen in man's actions and behavior. Not of his own accord, a man may at times even act or speak, and when this happens, it means that a Jinn has gained a kind of control over his mind and will. This possession indicates Allâh's ability, whereby He Almighty has given Jinn the ability to cause damage to man, even though man neither feels nor sees what is happening to him. But then if the Qur'an and other invocations are read over him, the Jinn exits his body by Allah's permission and he returns to normal.
