Are Snakes from Among the Jinn?

Authored by: Dr. Raza Abdullah Pasha ḥafiẓahullāh

❀ Are Snakes from Among the Jinn?​


Answer:

Yes, they are!

The Prophet ﷺ said:

"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.
