Question: Have you ever come across a patient who was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder but was in fact suffering from jinn possession or sihr? Answer: We have met many patients, about whom the family assumed, had a jinn but it turned out to be mental illness, nervous breakdown or other psychological issues. We have also had occassional cases where the patient had both jinn possession and a medically diagnosed mental health problem such as schizophrenia. Prior to performing the ruqya the raqi might ask a few questions relating to the persons habits. This is because a person who is genuinely possessed begins to display specific characteristics of the jinn such as intense dislike or anger towards the Quran, feeling nervous when they are about to enter a masjid, hate to have showers or spending long time in the toilet etc The jinn reacts to the recitation of the Quran in a very distinct yet subtle way that would go completely unnoticed by the untrained eye. A raqi who is specialized at detecting jinn possession can tell from the body language, the thoughts a person gets and other similar possession signs. The jinn will no doubt try to hide in the body, but ironically in their attempt to hide they end up revealing themselves. An example of this type of body language is that when a jinn is hiding in the body it will naturally go to hide in the extreme ends of the body, like the fingers or the toes. So if its in the right foot- the toes will curl (up or down depending etc) and the patient will probably twist their feet in an awkward angle so that the toes are hidden behind the left calf or ankle. There are many other signs which are not displayed by people with mental illnesses. Ruqya is an avenue that could be explored to eliminate jinn possession but not as a diagnosis of mental illness because raqis are not medical doctor. One of the problems with doing ruqya on anyone who has taken strong medication is that it dulls the reactions or makes them delusional. In this case the raqi should avoid doing ruqya for such a person. If in doubt get in touch with an experienced Raqi for diagnosis inshallah
