الأدلة الشرعية في إثبات صرع الشيطان للإنسان والرد على المنكرين

Abstract

Jinn's penetration of human body, causing epilepsy, Lunacy and other psychological abnormalities, is one of Muslims' beliefs which is proven by both intellectual and recounted legal evidences as well as the tangible concrete evidence. This study aims at congregating the legal evidences from Quran, sound Sunna (of the Prophet), consensus (of Muslim scholars) and concrete evidences that prove this belief, relying in this prove on sayings of imams and scholars of the people of Sunna and Jama'a in interpereation, monotheism and Prophetic traditions. Athough Mutazilite (an Islamic group) and some Muslim scholars denied that belief, this study handles their sayings and evidences and proves their weakness as well as the inability of these scholars to deny such a notion that is proved accurate by Quran, Sunna, consensus and by physical evidences. If some of those who denied this notion refer to intellect and claim that medicine regects the idea, this research proves that intellect (human reason) accepts it. The study also shows that most famous ancient and modern physicians admit satanic mania and call it (spiritual mania) that is caused by evil spirits. Furthermore, The Bible shows that Jinn may knock down human beings and penetrate their bodies. Jesus himself treated many people who suffered this obsession and was able to get jinn out of their bodies.
