Alhamdulillah,
which is the greeting. By now, you know,
peace be unto you. Welcome to another
episode of the Dean Show. All of the
shows are exciting because we get to
learn about so many wonderful things,
but this is an extra exciting episode.
One because I have a very special guest
and and two because the topic it's a
little bit scary now but I find it it's
a iman booster. It's a faith booster. We
know that we used our brain, our
intellect, our common sense. We took a
scientific analytical approach and came
to this way of life because it's the
truth. We didn't blindly come to it. We
came to it through using our reasoning
and we study this book which is the
Quran, the verbatim word of God which is
full of facts, not fiction.
facts, not fiction. And anyone who takes
a sincere humble approach will come to
the same conclusion as over 1.5 billion
people have all across the world that
there's no way that this book could have
come from other than the creator of the
heavens and earth. Now in this book
along with talking about the purpose of
life, why you've been created, why
you're here in this world, and where
you're going when you die. It talks
about the unseen world. That's right,
the paranormal, the jin. Some people
call it the ghost. Some people call the
spirits. But what do we as Muslims, what
do we believe? And we are going to get
into the details of the unseen world
when we come back. Don't go nowhere.
This is the
This is the show.
This is the
show. This is the show.
This is the show.
This is the
show. This is the show.
This is the show.
This is the show. This is the show. This
is the show. This is the Dean show. This
is the Dean Show.
Back here on the Dean Show. And this is
my sheh and the shake of of of
thousands all over the world. This is uh
Sheikh Dr. Wii Bassooni who is the vice
president of El Mghreb and also the Imam
of Clear Lake Islamic Center. Did I make
a mistake here?
No, you you just got it right. Thank
you.
Now I'm very excited. Very excited
because you were with us before and
alhamdulillah you're back again.
Alhamdulillah, thank you for having me.
Thank you. Thank you very much for being
How is your family? I know last time we

well.
So, you got some treats there.
Okay. Cool.
I like it. Thanks.
Alhamdulillah. All right. All right.
Since time is so short, I took one of
your your I I listened to one of your
lectures. It was live and you were
talking about the six articles of faith.
And one of them you talked about the
unseen world and it really the people
that were around me they were getting an
iman boost cuz you were talking about
the jin and this is something the
paranormal you know people say UFO
ghosts and all that and they can't
pinpoint it but Islam pinpoints it and
we talk about the jin the unseen world
can can we start off and tell us what is
when we say unseen world and when we
mention jin what is this
okay alhamdulillah
uh first of all praise is due to Allah
and his praise and blessings and peace
be upon our prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam and all the prophets and
messengers and their followers. U this
is one of the beautiful things about
being Muslim that basically you have an
authentic source that you can always go
back to it and it will teach you about
things that you might not arrive to to
it or to get to know it in your own and
most of these things related to the
unseen the next live. uh this book and
the tradition of our prophet Muhammad
sallallam uh told us about another uh
creation of Allah's creations who share
with us this earth we call them jin even
there's a whole entire chapter in the
Quran talking about jin and so many
verses the Quran told us about the jin
which is come from the word jah it's
meaning in Arabic language something uh
invisible something remote something
move fast. Uh and al jin is basically
um accountable beings that Allah created
them from fire and they will be held
accountable for their actions on the day
of judgment. God will judge them. They
were created before humans. They were
created before humans. They were in
earth. And Allah told us the purpose of
the creation of us as humans and the jin
as well. He said,
I have not created humans and jin for
any other purpose than to worship me. To
worship me. And Allah have sent to them
messengers have sent to them books and
basically u they are nations like us.
Exactly. Uh and they share with us this
earth. The only thing that Allah created
them in a way that they are invisible to
us. As he said subh in surah 7 he said
that the Satan and his basically uh u
kind they see you from a position where
you cannot see them.
So we can't we can't see them
but they can see us. Everything we're
doing they can see us.
Yes they they see us but we cannot see
them. We cannot see them. And in a very
rare uh cases very rare cases where
humans and jin can uh interact with each
others or basically cross the lines and
that's where people maybe see things
which is very weird unusual and they
will be maybe it's it's a jin it's a
jin.
So there are rare instances where people
cross that line. They're not supposed to
cross the line.
No they're not supposed to cross the
line. And that's why u like one of the
great Muslim scholars like Mishafi he
said if anybody claimed that he sees jin
all the time he's a liar and we will not
accept his testimony.
Uh and because Allah said that the
default rules that you don't see them
while they can see you. That's why the
Satan and basically his followers uh and
the jin in general uh they can see us
but we we can't see them and that's why
they can whisper to us. They can
basically sometimes
we're in very
incidents or rare incidents. They can
even harm humans or terrify humans. But
Allah created them to live normal life
basically to have their life. They have
they don't bother themselves uh by our
existence. Exactly like when you have so
many things live maybe in your house.
They have their own life and they
basically some insects, some bacterias,
viruses. There's so many things lives
around us. So many creations
they live and share with us the earth.
But they have their own system, their
own life and we have our life as well.
Can you in English define it as uh
genies, spirits? Uh how would you in the
English translate the word?
Um
is there a way to do that?
You know, every language is impacted by
its own culture. Yeah.
Um, one of the interesting things about
this word even the gin word comes from
the gin which is Arabic word because
basically most of the English speaker
today are
um Christians uh in Christianity the
concept of jin is not something they are
familiar with. For them there is angels
and there is humans and basically there
is those angels fallen angels the one
who disobey God like the Satan for
example that will be originally an angel
these evil souls or these uh rebels in
heavens the rebel against God in heavens
and follow the Satan they are demons for
us we don't see the Satan as an angel we
believe angels are created
that they were created from light versus
the jin they were created from fire as
Allahh said
I created the jin from smokeless fire uh
also the Satan himself told God I'm not
going to frustrate myself before Adam I
was created from fire and he was created
from the clay mud so you see clearly
here this is a big difference between us
and uh basically
the uh Christian traditions that they
don't see that as one of the creation
the gin like the way we see it uh versus
you will see uh Jewish uh basically in
Judaism you will find tra of that uh
belief of jin that also some uh suggest
that according to passages and their
book it were created from fire and air
so many modern maybe uh uh group among
uh modern Jewish maybe they will not
believe in in in the existence of the
jin but originally it is a doctrine that
exists among Jewish but it's not
something you see it in Christianity
let let's take a break there and we'll
be right back with more here on the dean
shower
coming to the truth requires two things
it requires deep thinking that you've
already done but it requires another
step and that's courage if you have the
truth, but you don't have courage, you
won't stand up for the truth. And that's
as good as standing up for falsehood.
I I would say, "This thing that you just
told me, it's not in the scripture." And
they would say, "A marginal note added
by a scribe." Yeah, okay. We know that.
And I'd be thinking, if you know this is
not the Bible, why are you preaching it
as if it's gospel truth?
[Music]
Back here on the Dean Show with my
special guest, Dr. Wid bassoon she tell
us now we know that as I said earlier in
Islam correct me you're our teacher that
we used our brain we used the common
sense and what's intrinsically in us
also to come to this truth that there's
only one God we worship him alone not
his creation that we believe in all the
messengers of God including Jesus
Abraham Noah Moses they all taught the
same way of life Islam complete and uh
total submission to that one God and
that's how you get peace so now there
are certain ten tenants of this faith
and one of them is to believe in this
unseen world. Now, can we attribute now
when people they talk about the UFOs,
unidentified flying objects, they'll
even have
this paranormal activity going on in
some of these they say haunted houses.
They felt like a presence of something,
something even by the graveyards. Can we
pinpoint it as Muslims that this is the
work? Because they'll have films based
on a true story, not fiction. These are
events and they bring in like these, you
know, uh, Ghostbusters to come in and
they're seeing this paranormal activity.
They can't figure it out. Are these the
gin?
Yes, very possible. I saw some of these,
uh, documentaries. Yes. Uh, I saw some
of these documentaries and I
um,
and there's a lot of films even came
lately about exorcism and stuff like
that. Lot of them. And basically I think
I was trying to say earlier yes maybe
the people don't believe in a
creationist called jin but they still
believe in the concept of demon that
possess humans or can harm or or bother
or or hurts or scare even people. Yes we
do. The prophet for example said uh that
the jin among them who fly. So some of
these unidentified objects the flying it
could be the jin that you see them
flying um you come across them also we
know about the jin that they take they
change forms they have the ability to
change forms they come in the shape of
different objects can come even in shape
of humans a shape of animals certain
animals so basically you might notice
them or see them and while they are on
one of these forms that's very possible
Also we know that among jin who lives in
houses and we we they known as
where they live in the house where they
live in the house. So many times you
might there is nothing in your house you
might hear something or you feel
something walking or a presence of some
you feel certain energy like around you
but you don't see it and this will be
the gin for us as Muslim we know that
this is normal basically you live your
life you they're not supposed to harm
you they're not supposed to bother you
they have their life and I have my life
and for us there's extra things which is
the prophet Muhammad sallallam told
uh there is so many supplications so
many u uh basically prayers that we do
as Muslim in the morning and the night
when we enter our home and when we say
we'll be protected from such h
jin because the rule goes like this
Allah said in the Quran about the jin
there's a whole entire chapter in Quran
called jin
among Among us, the righteous, the good
ones, among us who's not like that, who
are nasty, who like to harm people like
like what you see in humans. Some of
them gangs, some of them are you know,
same thing on the other side.
Some absolutely among them the
righteous, the nice one, the good ones
and and so forth.
U
and basically they are different. So you
might come across among one who really
would like to harm a person or or or
hurt them or they hate the righteous
people. Sometimes they try to harm them
and the maximum amount of harm that they
can do uh they can possess and even can
reach to killing the person. They can it
can reach to that level and and we have
so many incident and and historical
incident that they did such thing.
Yeah. Now we know that look God Almighty
he's the most loving the most merciful
he forgives all sins but if you die
associating a partner with the one who
created you die on you can still repent
am I correct before you die but if you
die on this what we call in every shik
associating partners with God you in a
hellfire forever is this correct
yeah this is basically the most
dangerous thing to do yes Allah said if
you Allah will never forgive this sin
which is to associate other with him
now My point here is because we'll see
again paranormal things unexplained like
a statue will come and there'll be some
tears from it and you'll see like some
sounds come out of different uh idols
and and and people they they they they
get fascinated with it or someone will
come and they'll say in the name of
Jesus or in the name of this person and
then the person's healed and can it be
that this is the jin working in these
situations and deviating people?
That's possible. That's possible. Some
of these are normal.
I heard, let me just add, I'm so sorry,
that I heard that sometimes the gin,
they can go into a person and they might
have a stiff arm or something. And then
someone will pray in the name of, you
know, the creation of God, which is only
supposed to pray to the creator. And
then the jin comes out and the person is
like, "Wow, this really must be because
of who they supplicated in the name of
so- and so."
Uh, say the I think you're right. You're
right. I'll tell you something
historically. It's interest similar to
this. In the time of the prophet
Muhammad,
yes,
the people used to go to the idols that
they used to worship beside God and the
idol will talk to them. Can you imagine
a piece of rock talking?
The idol was
will talk to them and they said Muhammad
look these idols are God. They talking
they talking to us. And the prophet
sallall alaihi wasallam basically
proved to them that this is not God. If
even if they talk they don't deserve to
be God because this not the creator.
There is no multiple gods in in in
heavens and earth and and all these
things that god cannot be in the shape
of human. God has the divine attribute
is not an object you move it from
another. So even if somebody claimed
that this is I call the name of whatever
and was healed does not prove that this
is a true or that human beings can be
god because again human beings cannot be
divine like human and it could be from
the shaitan and his follower from the
jin because one of the the satan's goal
he said to god I will deviate humans I
will deviate them in any way possible
that's his main mission make us go
astray that's why god in so many times
in the Quran said us he is your enemy
and take him as an enemy. Whoever take
him as an ally, whoever will trust him,
he will only uh uh basically be among
the losers.
That's the Shayan, the devil,
the Satan devil, which is he's one of
the jin, one of the jin. And he has so
many followers among the jin themselves.
So he has task. He sent people to de to
deceive people, deviate people, whisper
to people, inspire people to do what is
evil and wrong. So that's very possible.
Some of what you can what you see like
uh you think oh this is that means he's
upon the truth. You know what magicians
use this uh through across the history.
They did this with Moses. They were
never upon the truth. Pharaoh was not
upon the truth. Truth cannot be
recognized by these abnormal things.
truth can be recognized as I said in the
beginning of the of this episode is by
looking at the evidence looking using
your rational uh way of analyzing the
truth and knowing that this is the word
of God or not there's this worthy of
being God or not
now we will also hear about seances
where people will come together some
some very uh prestigious people they'll
go to these seances and they'll do some
kind of woo this that and the other and
they'll call upon and they'll see like
someone from the past they'll see their
grandfather or they'll say that someone
will speak, they'll hear a voice and and
then they end up worshiping what they
call spirits.
Yes.
Something that now can be related back
to the gin.
AB: Absolutely. That's the gin because
the souls uh after it will be taken, it
will not be just left to room fairly. So
that's the jin and uh uh one of the
thing that the satan has one of his task
that he appointed for each and every
human one gin to be in charge of
basically uh deceiving that humans and
and working on him and inspiring him to
do what is evil and bad and that gin
knows that person very well. So you
might come to you in a in a shape of
your father who passed away or some
shape of your actual father. Absolutely.
and he comes and he comes like that and
he talks to you and if you see it
u so this is very very possible that's
very possible u and basically in this
case again you will see that this is not
the way I recognize the truth
uh let's hold on we'll be right back
with more here on the dean show comes to
you the truth and the attribute of the
one who created you that he's one and
alone running this universe that he
doesn't become born he doesn't guy. He
doesn't eat and then go to the bathroom.
This is not God.
You got problems here. This it doesn't
make sense. Who was Jesus worshiping?
And because it's recorded in the
Gospels, despite all of the other issues
about the Gospels, we put those aside.
We just say it's mentioned there that
Jesus worshiped God.
Back here on the Dean Show and we're
talking about the unseen world, the jin.
And we talked about people having
seances, people seeing maybe their
grandfather from before or their uncle,
father. And then the jin, you know,
telling them, giving them some kind of
power, doing f can they do favors for
people like, you know, get them thing
information like the people who do like
the the, you know, the Ouija ball or
what's that? The the crystal ball. They
come in and they tell you certain things
and you're blown away. Again, the gin.
Uh I have a a real a a sister came to me
and she said she has this she said since
I became 13 years old I was gifted uh I
have the ability to read cards.
Yeah.
And I can tell you some about your f I
don't know something. I said how's that
started? She said I went to a a person
who's known of things like this. He said
he stripped me completely. He put me in
a in a bed. I was 13 years old 14 years
old at that time. And he covered me with
the sheet and he started doing some
weird prayers and you know spell me and
after that I was not normal for a while
and after that I was gifted that's what
she call and she said I used to tell the
teachers and the people in the school
about things related to their life their
homes what's going to happen to them
some of times correct sometimes not then
she said I became Muslim later on and
the moment I became Muslim she said this
is became a very strong struggle with
me. I always feel this energy coming
pressing me and I had very hard time
headache like voices in my head and
stuff like that. And she asked for for
my help and advice and one interesting
thing asked how would you you said
gifted what that means? She said when I
look at these cards, I will hear certain
voices in my ear and basically I will
tell the person based on the echo of
what I heard uh to that person what
happened to them or might happen to them
in the future.
But she said even I was so-al gifted
girl but I never lived happy life. And
my point is that those who the jin help
they never help them and to give them
absolute power. That's why in the
history of humanity everyone used jin.
Look at across the history of every
nation in the past who used jin and
magicians they never ruled the world.
They were not the richest people in the
world and and so forth. So basically
even the jin offer to help they enslave
that human. They will not just do it for
favor or let them go free.
We're we have a few more point. We're
going to inshallah, God willing, have to
do a continuation to this a part two. We
just opened up. This is like an
introduction. But for the person that
maybe might not, you know, uh get to see
part two, should people a be fearful of
jin? Should and how could people be
protected from those evil jin harming
them?
I'll tell you something that jin are
afraid of us more than we're afraid of
them.
More. Yes, we are way stronger than jin.
We jin are very weak creation. Very
weak. You basically you have a shape,
you have a body. Uh they don't have that
ability that you have that you this is
your earth. This is your place.
Basically you more dominating that.
There's no doubt about that that they
fear us more than we fear them. Uh
that's one thing. Two uh the more you
think about them in in in a way yes you
will be scared because you don't see
them. you all scare thing that you don't
see but the moment you start looking at
them you know what they have their own
word like I have my word like so many
things live in my house so many my
backyard in this earth with us we we
don't know about them so don't bother
yourself about them uh three no doubt
that reading the Quran prayer is a
basically is the best way and form of
protection uh for yourself uh and they
cannot even come closer to you. Uh I
don't know if we have a minute to share
with you something. Yeah, please.
Yeah. I I remember I was reading on
somebody who possessed with with Jyn and
that's true story. I I
is this like a what what people would
say is an exorcism?
Yes. Uh and and I I have I'm I witnessed
that myself.
What happened? Tell us.
And one of the thing that happened
basically after I ridden the person and
and he was uh cured and his body was
cured of that. The moment we walked out,
I heard lash on his back like somebody
with a web hit him on his back and he
jump about two feet in front of me. I
immediately run to this guy and uncover
his back and I see that mark in his
back. This guy with me for the last at
least 24 hours. I was with him.
Now, now you're a sane individual. You
never been uh locked up in any psych
ward or any of that?
No. No. No. Okay. And I saw that with my
own eyes on him. And basically I saw how
angry they were at him because we free
his body from this uh evil uh uh
whatever you call spirit or or there's
this jin and later on when he was
basically they come back to him and I
read on him and when I asked him did you
the one who hit him? He said yes and
this is a very strange voice and he said
why did you do that? He said, "I I I
hate it. I was so angry." And I said,
"Why you didn't hit me or my friend,
which is a person next to me." He said,
"I wish, but I cannot because you have
did your prayer today, your morning
prayer. You've been saying your the
supplication, the prayer that you do in
the day, and I and I cannot even reach
you. I cannot harm you." It's not about
me, anybody like this, me or the other
person with me. But the more you
remember Allah, the more you have this
faith with Allah, you are protected. You
are strong. You're stronger than what?
Than anything else on life.
This is part of Islam. The unseen world.
Paradise, the hellfire, the delights. If
you obey your Lord, do the good things
he wants you to do. You got paradise and
the hellfire. If now you want to live
according to your desire, you disobey
your Lord. There's the ramifications of
that. The day of judgment. This is part
of the unseen world and the unseen world
of the jin. You told us how we can be
protected. Obey the creator.
Obey the creator. Pray to him. Submit
yourself to him. And God said,
the the plotting of the harm of the is
very weak and Allah said
my servant my you have no power over
them you just submit yourself to your
lord be his servant and be basically
obey him and he has no control over you
he cannot harm you neither him or anyone
of his father
that's the key being Allah's servant
being his slave
yes
may Allah protect us may Allah protect
us thank you and we look forward to
doing another episode on the Jin.
Uh, you're welcome.
All right. All right. And thank you for
tuning in to another episode of the Dean
Show. That's the unseen world of the
Jin. And you know how to be protected.
You heard it. You got to obey your Lord.
Do all the good things he's told you to
do. And they're weak then. But now you
make him strong by being weak in your
dean, weak in your Islam, weak in your
submission to the one who created you.
Now you set yourself up for problems.
Don't have problems. Turn to the one
who's the source of all happiness and
peace. The one who created you and do
all the wonderful things that he told
you to do and you'll be protected.
You'll be protected. We'll see you next
time on part two of the jin the unseen
world with Dr. Shake Wi Basooni here on
the Dean Show. We'll see you then.
Peace. No speech is better than to do da
to call people to Allah and to do the
work.
No speech is better.
No, nothing is better than that. Is it
true that if one person and the Allah
giving you an ability to guide someone
with Allah's permission, the creator's
permission that is better than
everything in this world,
better than the whole world and
everything that's in it in in another
narration, it's better than the best of
wealth. But if we really felt that
Eddie, would we not be out giving da and
this is something that we encourage all
the MSAs, all the da organizations, the
masids to get this. We want to print
more. We give these to the non-Muslims
for free. For free. For free. We want
our brothers in humanity to become our
brothers in faith.
I am not afraid to stand alone.
I am not afraid to stand alone. If Allah
is by my side,
I am not afraid to stand alone.
I am not afraid to stand alone. If Allah
is by my side, I am not afraid to stand
alone.
I am not afraid to stand alone. If my
I am not afraid to stand alone.
[Music]
Alhamdulillah. Peace be unto you.
Welcome to another episode of the Dean
Show. We're going to be continuing on
talking this week about the unseen
world. The jin. The jin. We know that
Islam is something rational. It's
logical. Everything in there just makes
good old common sense. Has answers to
all your problems. Solutions for
everything.
This week we're going to be talking
about something that we believe in this
unseen world. We did a part one. You can
go to the deenshow.com. The vice
president who's with us today of the
Elmugre Institute. He's the imam of the
Clear Lake Islamic Center. Dr. Shik Wal
Basooni. He's going to continue
answering some of the questions we have
about the jin, the unseen world that's
around us. They see us, we don't see
them. We want to know some of their
tricks. We want to know how they live,
how they eat, what, you know, the
communities they live in. And this is
something that's going to help to
strengthen us so we can be protected and
so we can be and continue doing God's
will so we don't fall to the tricks and
the traps of Shayan. And we'll be right
back with Dr. Shake Basoon. Don't go
nowhere. This is the the
[Music]
show. This is the show.
This is the show. This is the
[Music]
show. This is the dean show.
Asalamaikum. Peace be unto you.
How are you, Sh?
Pretty good. Pretty good.
We're going to continue on talking about
the unseen world of the gym. People can
go to the deanshow.com. You have your
own private section there and they can
see part one of the show we did about
the gin. Now I I I I want to get into
it's a very very interesting topic and
we know that you know 90% of the world
they believe what's already intrinsic in
themselves the belief in a creator. Now
if you believe in a creator you also you
know you believe what he told us about
the shaitan the devil who's out there
and you mentioned the earlier show his
mission is to mislead us in many
different ways. So we want to talk now
the relation between we say shan okay
the devil and then this unseen world at
a den jin are these the same or are they
different they one of alike please
continue from here
uh the satan some Muslim scholars uh
believe that he is the father of all jin
like Adam is the father of all humans
and they said the satan is the father of
all jin and they said the father of the
jin and the father of human they had
this conflict in heaven basically u when
Allah order the Satan to prostrate
himself before Adam and one of the
people who believed in that will be a
great scholar's name is Zui Rahim Allah
and others and they said that since
Allah said he is uh he can see you him
and his offsprings so basically he
referred to all the jin as his children
his children that's why they said he's
the father of the jin and Allah knows
best but we know some some stuff about
this creation which is the devil first
of all uh the devil was a jin h because
very clearly he said about himself that
he was created from fire
said in the Quran
that Satan was one of the jin but
originally he was not evil he was not an
evil creation he was very righteous jin
uh worship god uh submitted himself to
the lord and he was even raised to the
level of angels that's why he was with
the angels when god told the angel
prostrate himself before Adam but his
arrogance
led him to reject the truth to reject
the order of Allah and that's why anyone
who reject the faith out of arrogance
feeling that I'm too big to submit to
the lord he's just basically following
the footstep of the satan
Um this Satan is so arrogant that he try
even to copy God like God have
basically appointed for every human
angels to protect them to inspire them
to good. So what the Satan did he look
at his followers and his some of his
children who follow his footsteps and he
appointed for every human one of his
follower to inspire them to do bad. Also
the prophet wasallam told us that uh
Allah told us in the Quran that Allah's
throne above water it's not this water
on this earth somewhere up in the
heavens but the Satan went down to earth
and he put his his throne on a water and
it's very interesting there is a hadith
says water but there is another
narration says on the sea and in Arabic
language the water ma and sea has
completely different meanings in
Arabicang language when he said see it
means not a fresh water. So that means
his throne where he's set where his
kingdom basically is in somewhere in a
salt water not a fresh water not a
rivers someone somewhere in oceans or in
one of the seas and basically he send
his followers he send uh uh basically
those who listen to him and and worship
him instead of god to put uh evil task
on earth evil task inspire people to
kill to fornicate to steal whatever
evil task that they do on on earth. Um
we know also a little bit about u the so
he is the father of the jin but or one
of the jin let's say according to some
of scholars as well those jin among them
the worshippers the righteous and among
them the evil and the bad
you have some Muslim jin also
absolutely and you have and from every
religion from every group uh that's why
when when the Allah said in the Quran
we have let some of the jin listen to
you and Muhammad when you're reciting
the Quran. So they went back to their
people. They said this is sounds very
similar to what Moses used to recite the
Torah. So basically they chose also
among them there have knowledge of the
Torah and the Bible and the David songs
and so on. So because they were exist
since before Adam. So they have met and
known and seen all these prophets and
all these messengers uh basically among
them the good and the righteous among
them the bad and the one who basically
like to harm others like to hurt others
they intermar they have childrens. Allah
told us that they have childrens. Uh
they die like humans. They die. The jin
die.
Absolutely. Like us. Uh uh the prophet
sallallam used to supplicate to lord. He
said you are the most you are the living
one who never dies. And humans and jin
die.
Do the jin die when the human being
dies. So they're
not necessarily but their lifespan is
similar to our lifespan.
Yes.
They die exactly like us. They live and
they they die. uh also what we know
about them they basically as I said they
intermar and they eat
they eat also and they eat and they
drink how they eat how they drink how
they consume this we don't know exactly
like you will some one was telling me
how they eat if they if you can see them
I said you know what there's a lot of
things feed on things and you don't know
how they consume is it by eating it
digesting it sucking the nutrition of it
we really don't No,
the fly eats off your food, doesn't it?
When it come, you don't the food doesn't
disappear.
Absolutely. Exactly. Um, so also we know
about them that the prophet sallallam
said that they eat with their left hand
and they basically give and take with
their left hand not with the right hand.
Uh, also we told that
uh certain animals can see them like
dogs they can see the jin and they can
notice them.
The dogs Yes. they can see them. Uh also
uh one of the thing that we know about
the the jin in general uh or the
that they live on this earth and Allah
said that they will live in this earth.
They will die in this earth. They will
resurrect in this earth and they will be
judged on this earth. Also we know that
the jin will be judged exactly like us.
Some of them will go to heaven. Some
will go to hellfire. Those who did not
worship God will go to hellfire. M
also we know that God sent them
messengers and books
through the history to guide them
exactly like the same thing he did to us
as humans as humans.
One time the prophet wasallam saw a man
sitting on the uh in a in a position
where half of his body in the shade and
half his body in the sun. He said this
is how the shaitan like to sit. How
thean like to sit. One of the thing we
know about their look that this the the
the kafir among them the disbelievers
among them they look so ugly. That's why
Allah said the trees of the of the hell
the fruit of it looks like the devils
looks like the faces of the devil.
Nobody saw the face of the devil but
humans by nature know it's ugly. Know
it's scary. We know that he has horns
and like a lot of people draw the devil
with horns. Yes, we know that he has
also horns. The prophetam said that that
he has horns.
H uh we know that the Satan also like to
order his followers to prostrate before
him uh during the sunset time and
sunrise time. That's why we Muslim we
don't pray at that particular moment the
sunset and the sun uh rise. U this is
some of the thing that we know about
them.
Don't lose your place shake. They're
signaling. We got to go to a break and
then we'll continue on from there. We
come back. We're right back here on the
dean show.
All of the prophets would have been
labeled Muslims because this essential
message was the same message, submission
to the will of God.
This is God talking to you directly. How
could I stand behind the pulpit on
Sunday morning and preach a sermon that
I knew was at variance with the actual
taproot of Christianity.
Back here on the dean show, we're
talking to Dr. Shik W Bassoon. You're
talking about the unseen world of the
jin and how can someone how can we you
said that they're actually they're weak
but are you more susceptible because we
hear and again these are based on true
story incidents where people get
possessed by the jin these uh can you
say evil spirits
uh the yeah the the evil among the jin
or evil spirits
uh and then they get possessed so what
can a person do and is a person more
susceptible if he's not doing the will
of God of the creator obeying him in his
commands, worshiping him alone and doing
all these things. Do you set yourself up
where now you be make him stronger?
I just want to set a rule before even if
you don't mind answering this question.
Whenever we talk about the word of the
unseen, we have to differentiate between
two things.
When it comes to the unseen in general,
yes,
uh there's a lot of things we can
comprehend. Yes.
But it doesn't mean necessarily we can
imagine.
Yeah.
And there's a big difference between
imagining it and comprehending it. For
example, I cannot imagine gravity.
Yes,
I cannot imagine uh infinity. I don't
mean the car, the concept. Okay. Uh I
cannot imagine so many things, but I
still comprehend what what it is, what
it means. So the word of jin, yes,
sometimes you cannot imagine their
existence and how they live and how they
possess and how they do all this. But I
can understand that, comprehend that. So
a lot of people because they cannot
imagine it, they cannot visualize it,
they rush to deny it. And this doesn't
make any sense. Doesn't make any sense.
So just I want to make that distinction.
I think it's a very important point.
Yeah. You see that? Yeah.
As for Yes, they are weak. Sometimes
they harm humans. Sometimes they possess
them even. Uh and basically
uh I would like to say that this is a
very rare cases and it's not something
uh even easy on them. That's basically
because it's
against the nature of their life. That's
not they not that's not supposed to rare
and it's not supposed to happen and it's
basically getting out of your way to do
it. So it's not something they pleasant
for them pleasant for them. They they're
not very um enthusiasm about doing
things like this very rare case. Most I
I have seen a lot of pe cases in in my
life h people come to me and said hey my
son is possessed my daughter or I am
myself possessed and I can tell you 90%
of the cases are not true not true but
there is cases which is absolutely true
where there is a possession whereas
houses are basically full of jin and
they want this houses for them and they
don't want anyone to share this house
have you ever walked in a house like
this have you ever been in situation.
Yes, I' can you share I've been once in
a in a situation like this where uh
basically
a lot of weird things happened in this I
was that time in in high school actually
uh and uh we went to uh one of the
houses very old house very old house and
we rented this place and basically a lot
of weird things start happening doors
opening closing lights goes on and off
by itself it's not electricity problem.
It just not it's not normal at all. It's
completely normal. And one of our
friends start acting very weird and
basically sleeping all the time and
starts saying and doing things very
weird. For example, which is impossible
to be he's not capable of it. He will be
sitting in the room with someone and he
will tell there is someone now in the
street so and so person coming up and he
going to knock on the door. He's
someone's coming to the door and he's
saying hey someone's going to knock on a
door. You don't even see through the
wall
and there is no any logical possibility
that this know this person know that
this person is coming it's impossible
and he would say this person is coming
so this is very weird and he will start
using very weird languages words that
this person we know him for years he's
not familiar with this languages at all.
So basically when we start reading on
him and and stuff like that we we found
the reaction was very severe very severe
very weird voices coming out of him and
screaming and and hitting and stuff like
that. Um so
when finally we were able to let that
evil spirit on him to talk, he basically
said uh this is our house and we live
here and you guys have to leave this
place. So I I told him I I that's not
right. I rented this place from the guy
upstairs who owned this apartment and I
have a contract. You know, you can't
this is not right. If you have a
problem, take it upstairs. Most people
would have fled and said, "Hey, come out
of here." You having a dialogue.
Absolutely. And I think that's the best
why actually if you ever been in a
position like this. So said if you have
problem take it upstairs with the guy
is he talking to the person
talking to the person very completely
different
voice tone and stuff like that
and uh
alhamdulillah we were able to uh settle
in a way that he he said he would leave
his body but he said you guys leave
immediately. Anyway, it was one
experience, one of the early experience
I have seen. One of the thing I remember
a group of uh uh psychiatrics uh we had
a debate in Bahrain uh with a group of
psychiatrics about the issue of
possession. They denied and the reason
they denied because they denied the
existence of jin.
Yes.
So I said first of all we cannot talk
about possession if it's possible or
not. If you don't believe in their
existence and if you don't believe in
their existence, you don't believe in
what's in the Quran. Al Quran stated
clearly there is jin and in so many
verses. As for the possession itself,
the person possessed with jin. I said
you cannot deny the reality what you see
with your own eyes. Forget about debate
over text. I'll give you one thing I do
whenever a case like I had um I will say
because sometimes they trick you even
the the person himself the person
himself he can act like he's possessed
because psychological problem
and I have seen cases like this but one
of the thing I see if you really a jin I
said I will put an object in the side in
the other side of the room like the
corner of the room I'll said knock it
down
like a bottle tissue box and if you
knock it down I know that this is not
human
yes
because there is no way possible in a
closed room no air nothing and this is
will be knocked down like this yes
accidentally or it's impossible so I
know that I'm dealing here with the with
the gin and this has happened several
times several times I remember even one
time we did this in a prison of a
psychiatric himself
you were doing this uh
in front of him He he asked us to be
involved into what we call the theorism
exorcism Islamic and reading the Quran
to get the jin out
out of the person.
Uh anyway, so when you have cases like
this, all what you do is you read the
Quran on the person and you have a
dialogue sometimes you can win
intellectually with the person. That's
why I'm saying the Quran have very
strong power over them. They they scream
they cannot take it because they felt
the power of the Quran over this pallet.
It's too so different than humans.
That's why he's telling you human are
worse than uh jin you read the whole
entire Quran over someone you were like
okay so whatever but the jin you just
read start reading Allah
they were so screaming cannot take it
and I remember one of the gin said I
don't believe in god to me he said I
don't believe in god I said you sure
about that he said yes I don't believe
in it I said okay then I said
he screams then I will say some poetry
in Arabic and he will be listening and I
told him what's the difference why you
screaming when I read this
lines in Arabic and you are very normal
when I read this lines in Arabic he said
I don't know I said you're lying you
know what's burn you what's really
affect you is the verses of the Quran
it's the words of God and you knew it
don't tell me I don't believe
alhamdulillah and finally he he admitted
he admitted that there is a god there is
Allah there is exist and and so many
times even they accept Islam
alhamdulillah and they will even leave
the body of the person. But uh what I
want to say there's a lot of people also
imagine things like this and I have a
lot of stories also people claim that
they have jin or possessed and there is
nothing wrong with the psychologically
they are basically affected uh
psychologically they go through trouble
hard time and they imagine that they are
and then they they
they act like one
attributed to jin
let's take a break we'll be right back
with more here on the D show
he is born about 60 years ago in former
Yugoslavia
today's Bosnia after second world war
and you imagine today you have one child
killed too much it's important that we
realize that Islam is a gift so we
believe that in the teachings of Jesus
what is left there is truth in that
but the truth has been mixed up with
paganism and with nature worship and so
Islam has given you a pure
straightforward way of approaching
monotheism us from hunger.
Back here on the dean show and we're
talking about the jin the unseen world
of the jin with Dr. Shik Wi Bassooni
tell us now you before we went to break
you said these are rare cases that a
person will get possessed by the jin but
in cases that people do and let's say
they want to get some therapy. All
right. Now, you'll hear weird things.
People out there who uh tell them to do,
you know, uh I've I've heard this
myself, you know, go get a chicken and
then they write some weird stuff. They
give you some ambulance to put on all
these weird and bizarre uh things.
Is this and does it have anything? I'm
sure you have more experience. Uh does
this have anything to do with Islam? And
what's the proper way to do the proper
proper healing of getting this jin out?
Uh okay. First of all, the best way to
do that is to read Quran is to call the
adan like in the house for example there
is presence of jin in it. You read the
Quran in it. The prophet said if you
read Bakar the jin will not enter this
house. When you enter your house you say
you call the adan in this house. You
start praying in this house and Allah
will take this away. Uh that's one
thing. If somebody possessed you read
the Quran on him and you can read on
your own self and you know one person he
read on his own self until Allah cure
him. So that's that's one thing. The
second uh basically also you can read in
a water and you consume this water and
if somebody possessed with jin the
moment I give him the water which is
read Quran in it and I blow in it he
will throw up. He would never if he
consume it he will go have diarrhea go
to the bathroom start sweating it will
never settle in his body but the more he
do that the more he protect himself from
inside uh as for uh the gin the gin they
don't like certain colors sometimes they
don't like certain uh smells sometimes
so some people by experience they know
this so they let that person see these
colors see these animals see these smell
senses and that's bother the jin and let
them leave the place. Leave the place
and sometimes it can be effective but
anything involved worshiing jin or
killing or sacrificing or
that's what I mean like the chicken
sacrificing that's not allowed that's
forbidden.
Have you heard of some of these things?
Absolutely. And this is basically the
jin used this trick to make you commit
the major ship the major sin that ever a
human can commit which is basically uh
to offer any form of worship to other
than God and basically to humiliate the
humans and to let them go to that low
level of being worshipper of the devil
or the demons. One more thing I I want
to say here sometimes with the gin
possessed humans they can make a
physical damage. So treatment can be
very effective like in certain cases you
might somebody the psychiatrics will uh
prescribe certain medication for the
person and I believe it works very fine
for them because those tin when they
possess human they may cause im chemical
imbalance in brain and the medicine will
balance it out. They might make a
physical damage to your hand and therapy
and basically operations
uh some exercise physical the can return
it back to its normal.
So the gin by possessing you they did
some of these things
they can cause physical damage and this
is can be fixed through medicine through
uh basically therapy. The modern sites
as a Muslim we don't deny or say they
have nothing to do with things like
this. actually they can be very helpful
and basically we handto hand we work
together.
So anything that's weird something that
these these weird incantations something
that you know you you would repulse
usually like that's something where it's
a red light. Hold on. I need to go check
up with with a with a true Islamic
scholar because you got a lot of people
dealing with witchcraft and all that has
nothing to do with Islam.
Absolutely. This is unacceptable.
Unacceptable. So the only way is like
you said reciting the Quran the verbatim
word of God over this person these other
details are reciting over the water and
yes or it's a basically a treatment
prescribed by a physicians or a
psychiatrics that they see that this is
a form of treatment they diagnose the
the problem and what do we here the
different we feel we sometimes believe
that this problem could be caused by jin
yes
and that's where Maybe some doctors
don't agree with us on that.
Now, you'll see a lot of people who
right away they say, "Oh, I I I I think
I got the jin in me." When you evaluate
their life, you know, they're not
submitting themselves completely to the
creator. Say the woman's not wearing
hijab. You know, she's uh partially
praying, you know, uh uh dressing
promiscuous or the the boy also going to
nightclubs, messing around with the
ladies. We know in Islam it's marriage
and this test driving. And then they
right away they feel like, man, I got
this jin in me or something. Can this be
the effects of the sin now? More so
see the the the sin these sins the jin
doesn't mean possess humans. It means
make them uh collapse and make you know
they inspire them to do bad. The jin
will be more happy to make you do all
this sin than possessing your body. The
jin will be much happy
creator than just bothering you or
harming you. You know, because he harmed
you already by leading you to the way
that lead to the hellfire. So, he's
happy. That's the best thing he can do.
That's the best thing. Right. Tell us uh
before we a few more points before we we
we're almost out of time. Tell us, you
know, I I remember listening to a story
you told us that there was uh one of
this person that he was putting blades
in his body, right? And then there was a
Muslim happened to come in the room and
just recite ayati. Yes.
And then he wasn't able to do it no
more. Could you share the story with us?
Uh
yes. Uh this story happened in Dubai
some uh performance. He used to put like
daggers in his body and basically he
said I put all these daggers on my body
and he used the gin. He said always the
gin observe the daggers and people think
that I put it in my body. I never did.
And in that day I were performing in
Dubai and this young man came in holding
them swak in his hand and he started
reciting kuri. I can see it. He said I I
can see him from a distance. The moment
he he did that the gin run away and all
the daggers went straight to my body and
I fall on the stage. I was taken to the
hospital said after couple of months he
said for two years I have nothing in
life but to harm this person and to hurt
him back. I was able to get his name
where he lives and every jin that I can
put my hand on through my practices of
of magic and dealing with jin I used to
send them to him and every time they
come back to me said we couldn't touch
this boy we couldn't harm this boy and
he said the reason is always the same
when I asked him why they said this boy
never missed salat
never missed the prayer
that's the key being in compliance with
all the things that the creator told us
to do and that main important thing is
the day
it's a protection
you know the prophet said prophet yah
John one address his people and he told
them the example of us humans with the
devil like the example of somebody his
enemy trying to capture him then he
enter into a castle with have very high
walls thick walls so the enemy were not
able to reach him he said this castle is
the remembrance of Allah it's the prayer
that the the person do every day to his
lord and this is the protection that we
as human needed to be protected from all
these devils and evils out there
just a couple more points couple more
points tell us if a person feels okay
now they really feel that they need to
have some rookie done right that's what
it's called yes and they go to someone a
imam or some you know person that they
feel all right he can help me but this
person is doing some some things that
you know the community say yeah go see
this man he he he makes the lights go
off. He go he does this crazy stuff. Is
this also a red
and that's a red light. Anybody use un
uh uh uh unknown language like weird
words, unknown language or somebody
start putting like uh uh senses and
smoke and and like dark rooms and all
this stuff and basically ask you about
your mother's name. Uh, give me a
picture of someone that you know, a
piece of cloth, make a fire, ask you to
kill animals or to sacrifice something,
even sometimes eggs to touching you or
some stuff like that. Anything like
that.
This is this is basically uh bologoney.
This is just baloney. Yeah. This is a
person who is a we call him in Islam in
Islam we call him magician. We call them
anybody give you uh basically fortune
tellers also we call them uh he give you
for example a charm to hang it on you or
to put it on your neck or around your
kids for protection that's absolutely
has nothing to do with Islam the
protection is very simple pray your
prayers make your supplications the day
in the morning uh every day ask Allah to
protect you and believe me that Allah
always with you Allah is the most merc
merciful, the most loving God subhana wa
ta'ala.
You just got to obey him.
You got to do what the wonderful things
he's told us to do and then will we be
protected.
Absolutely.
Thank you very much. Thank you very much
for being with us once again. May God
Almighty, the creator, Allah, reward you
in abundance.
Thank you. Thank you.
And there you have it. Some great
advice. Be with Allah. Be with the one
who created you. Worship him alone, not
his creation. Establish the prayer, the
salat five times a day. And look to
please your Lord by doing everything he
told you to do. loving everything he
loves and hating everything that he
hates. Be in complete comp compliance
with his will, with all the wonderful
things that he told us to do, following
the example of the last and final
messenger sent to mankind, Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, and spend
your time wisely. Stay away from bad
company, bad people, and just live a
good life how Allah told you to live it,
obeying him and everything, and you'll
be okay. And this is what we need to be
striving for each and every day. We'll
see you next time. peace be unto as if
everything depends on Allah and it does.
But you must work as if everything
depends on you and it doesn't.
That's my point. You see what I'm
saying? And I don't like that. I don't
like us sitting here. What are you
waiting for? What are we waiting for
right now? What are we waiting for? All
these people to come to Islam. What are
we waiting for? What are we waiting for
right now? When they going to come?
They're going to come. Allah going to
bring these people. Allah subhana wa
ta'ala put in our hand the ability to do
it now. Do your job.
