"الحَيَّاتُ مَسْخُ الجِنِّ كَمَا مُسِخَتِ القِرَدَةُ وَالخَنَازِيرُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ"
[Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān Ḥadīth No. 1080, Al-Ṭabarānī al-Kabīr Ḥadīth No. 11946, Ibn Abī Ḥātim 2/290, al-Silsilah al-Ṣaḥīḥah Ḥadīth No. 1824]
“Snakes are the transformed form of jinn, just as some among the Children of Israel were transformed into monkeys and pigs.”
This narration indicates that some snakes are a metamorphosed form of jinn, similar to the transformation that befell certain individuals from Banī Isrā'īl.
