Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan works through ayah six of Surah Al-Jinn, وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْإِنْسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا (72:6) and the two words the ayah turns on. Ya’udhun comes from a root describing meat that clings to the bone and vines that will not come off a wall, the same word behind A’udhu billah. Rahaq describes a dog pinning its prey. Together they explain what actually happens when human beings go looking for jinn: you approach them for one thing and end up owned by them. The session moves through the narrations of Arabs calling on the master of the valley at night, the man who watched a wolf return a lamb unharmed when a shepherd called out, Ibn Kathir’s suggestion that the wolf was the jinn itself and Ibn Ashur on the humiliation that follows. It closes on the qareen and why a palm reader can tell you about your own grandfather. Watch the full Deeper Look: Surah Al-Jinn series on Bayyinah TV at: https://byna.tv/374
