I am not sure if you were aware of a case in Birmingham, UK last week, where a judge sentenced several members of a Pakistani family for murdering their daughter. The reason for their actions was that they believed she was 'possessed by a jinn'.
You are probably aware, that many Muslims, more so from the subcontinent feel that in some cases where people have psychotic episodes etc, that is could be due to jinn possession.
I have looked through the verses of the Quran on jinns, I could not find anything that suggests this is possible.
From your knowledge, does the Quran mention anything about 'possession' or is this something that stems from secondary sources?
It is an area i think needs to be explained to people , not just to stop heinous crimes like above, but to realise that people displaying any signs of mental health need help, not to be killed.
Your thoughts are very welcome
