Facts and notes on witchcraft & demons practices in Iran (and other similar countries):
- Yes, there are sorcerers, fortunetellers, and traditional healers throughout the Muslim world; many are in violation of interpretations of the Shari’a (Islamic law), and in some countries, that is punishable by death.
- In Islam, jinn (a type of demon – mainly trickers type) are an integral part of Islamic theology.
- Jinn are intrinsically intertwined with the practice of both licit Qur’anic magic and illicit black magic (sihir). Black magic is considered to be worked by those who have learned to summon evil jinn to serve them while Qur’anic magic invokes the guidance of God to exorcise the demons.
Greetings,
Are jinns actually same demons or entities like goetic demons and why they are only mentioned in islam?
