In the western world, we have grown up with the concept of demons and devils – the evil beings of the spirit world, according to traditional Christian beliefs. Other religions around the world have their spirit beings, too, of course. In Islam, the djinn are a race of spirit beings that can be good or evil. (Djinn, or jinn, is the origin of the more familiar word "genie" in English.)Muslims believe that evil djinn can sometimes possess human beings, as some Christiansbelieve demons can possess people.Q: How were the djinn created? A: Verses of the Koran and the Hadiths show unambiguously that the djinns were created of fire without smoke.
According to Ibn ' Abbas, the expression "without smoke" means "end of the flame." Other scientists think that this expression means the purest of fires.
What's
important to know, quite simply, is that that the djinn were created of
fire and therefore have a constitution completely different from ours.
The djinn were created before man. While the djinn were made of fire, man was made of clay and angels created of light.
In this way, the djinn are
invisible. So if they are invisible how do we know they exist? Many
things exist that our eyes do not see, but their effects are
perceptible, such asthe air and electrical current.
Also, this word was reported by Allah himself, and Allah does not lie.
Q: Where do the djinn live?
A: The djinn prefer to live
in places not inhabited by man, such as deserts and wastelands. Some
among them live in the dirty places (dustbins) and others live among
man. The djinn live in these dirty places in order to eat the
remainders of foods thrown away by people. Also, certain djinn live in
cemeteries and ruins.
Q: Can djinn change form and appearance?
A: The djinn have the
capacity to take many forms and to change appearance. According to the
Imam Ibn Taymiya, they can take a human or animal, forms......

The unnamed woman, with a long history of involvement with Satanic groups, was observed by a team of priests, deacons, several lay assistants, psychiatrists, nuns, some of whom also had medical and psychiatrictraining, levitating six in...Spirit Walk-ins
To understand what a "walk-in" is one first
needs to understand that our physical body is not *us*. It is the container for
*us*. Similar to someone driving a car. When we see the driver we understand
that they exist irrespective of whether they have a car, or not. So too with our
bodies. We exist irrespective of whether we have a physical body or not. In
other words we existed as a spirit (soul) before the body we now occupy was
born. When our physical body dies we will continue t...Woman claims demon drove her from home
A woman in Texas was driven to leave the home she was renting due to a series of paranormal sightings of a little girl that in one session with a local investigator was claimed to be demonic in nature.
"One woman says her familylived in fear. She claims they heard voices and saw shadows intheir home. . The family was so scared they called a ghost hunter to find out what was going on. "My little girl would see a little girl wi...Ancient mystery returns as 'Satan's hoofprints' are spotted
A 150-year-old mystery has reared its head after a woman woke to find 'Satan's hoofprints' dotted across freshly fallen snow in her back garden. The single track of cloven-like prints - which appear to have been made by a two-legged creature - precisely resemble footprints recorded in the area in 1855.The phenomenon, which has never been explained, became known as the 'Devil's foot prints' in a local legend. Grandmother Jill, 76, of Woolsery, Devon, said: 'I...A demon calls
Anthony North: Occasionally, paranormal literature throws up a case so incredible that we either dismiss it as fantasy, or edge towards the idea that demons and possessions are a reality. The facts are just so fantastic, rational inquiry is often forgotten.But are we right to either dismiss or accept? Or is it possible that rational explanations can be placed upon the subject within an overall cultural explanation of phenomena? I opt for this middle ground. Anna Ecklund: Consider the case of Ann...Witch doctors called in to school haunt
A school in Madhya Pradesh has called witch doctors to overcome ghosts that allegedly haunt girl students but mysteriously spare the boys. Officials at the Government Higher Secondary School in Duma village in Seoni district are also performing weird rituals throughout the day in a desperate bid to restore sanity.Naturally, studies have taken a backseat at the school.Villagers believe ghosts come to possess the girls once they reach the school, which has been built on an old cremation ground.Sur...What is a pact with the Devil ?
Anthony North: We are all aware of the term, "pact with the Devil". It means selling your soul to the Devil for favour, but it always requires something in return, resulting in you being lost to good, and coming under the influence of evil. During the Witchhunts, witches were thought to have come under the Devil"s influence. This is usually rejected nowadays -the Devil is a product of monotheism, whereas witches come under the pagan -a totally different spiritual system. Yet philosophically it i...Who the Devil ?
Anthony North: The Devil may seem an archaic symbol of evil, but he is supposed to be alive in the world to this day with his Satanic conspiracies. From the 1960s onwards, one expression of him was the Church of Satan, set up in San Francisco by occultist, Anton La Vey.Said to have perverted many a star, his ceremonies involved a naked woman as an altar and his philosophy was based on unbridled hedonism. The death of Jane Mansfield was even put down, by some, to their rituals. Who is he ? The na...Chief exorcist says Devil is in Vatican
