The Jinn mythology originated from the preIslamic Arabs. Mohammed inherited all the belief system of preIslamic Arabia except its polytheism. He promoted the monotheistic Allah religion of
Submission.

It must to be noted that only Jesus defeated Satan in heaven, and on earth
by a sinless life; and it is he who can heal a demon possessed person. God knows those who are his and the prospective members of his kingdom, and will heal all who come to him by faith in His Son.

"Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity." 2 Timothy 2:19

Unlike the Koran, the Bible nowhere mentions its existence. However, the existence of evil spirits who possess human beings are mentioned such as Luke 8:2.
"And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils...."

This cited text reveals how Jesus healed Mary of demonic possession. The miracle occurred because of Mary's belief in Jesus as her personal Savior from sin. This miracle repeats itself everyday when people accept Jesus as their personal
Savior from sin. God and Satan cannot live under the same roof.

Exorcism by church appointed elders might work as well (Matthew 10:1;17:13-18), but self exorcism is better. When one accepts Jesus as his personal Savior from sin, Jesus will clean his house of any demonic possession.

Many eastern religions worship idols, and label their idols as "God" to fool people to be part of their religion. Does Satan know this? certainly yes. He is the one promoting fanaticism and idolatry. Nota Bene:

"And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed." Acts 19:11-20.

It is such belligerent attitude which confirms the impotency of your belief system as amoral and irresolute to produce useful citizens for society!

What is wrong with saying I do not agree with you and state your reasons?

May I also remind you that you are only one of many who come to the Ghana forum to post comments.

My friend, get an education!

Why did you decide to go down with him with all the education you have. Why didnot you criticise his approach as an individual instead of attacking the belief systems, which he may not even understand.

Igwe Leo and his ignoramus cohorts are at it again. Jinns are not a myth-they are real and they exist among us and possess people. The devil and demons are the Jinns and Christians believe demons possess people. So what new thing is Leo talking about? Leo and his other Islam haters should bear mind that they can never destroy Islam. Islam is spreading like wildfire and will dominate the world sooner than we thing. All over Europe Churches are being sold and converted to Mosques. Can't you see? I urge Leo and other Islam haters to desist from spreading their hatred because it can never help them.

That's incorrect.

That's incorrect.

According to Isaiah 43:11, God said: “I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior.” Also God said according to Isaiah 45:21-22: “Was it not I, the LORD? And there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none but me. Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.”

James 4:12 “God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbour?” Am quoting from the ‘New Living Translation’ Bible

Mathew 20:23 "....My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on My left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father."

The bottom line is that prophets can intercede on our behalf but non has power to save except God will's.

I advice you to study the scriptures well before commenting on them.

Kwasi, history has proven that persecution of minorities results in nations which legislate religious
laws. Current case in point is the blasphemy law in Pakistan. Recall sometime ago a Christian lady was charged with blasphemy in Pakistan. She has been in prison for about 4 years now, and she is now on death row. By the way, two Muslim men who tried to help her because they saw her charge as unjustified were brutally murdered by Islamic militants.

The middle ages also witnessed persecution by the Church of Rome in which millions of faithful Christians died for their beliefs.

Then there is a recent case of a widow who had just married in Syria. The couple were all Muslims. It happened that the husband was not pleased with a sexual encounter with her new wife because she was not a virgin. The husband reported the case to the authorities (ISIS). The wife was charged with adultery, and was brought to the public square, and stoned to death.

Travesty of justice? you bet! But who could have spoken on this woman's behalf during the ISIS tribunal? Could this poor woman have appealed her case to a higher tribunal? No.

I am glad that there is a better tribunal with equitable laws in heaven, and God himself is the judge. Let's us plan to be there!

Research about about the immoral treatment of female African house workers in the Arab countries. Or do not go too far. Research about the immoral treatment and sexual abuse of female house helps by Arabs here in Ghana.

My brother Abdul, for your information, I am from several generations of Muslims. My people migrated from an Islamic country to Ghana in the early 20th century. It is migration, and education which changed my nuclear family's sociological profile. Nevertheless, I have studied Islam, and seen its powerlessness in salvation. I chose Salvation in Jesus Christ because Mohammed, the founder of Islam died without knowing whether he will go to heaven or hell at the resurrection. I know have a living Savior who can help me to live free from sin, and join him in heaven one day. Remember no sin will enter heaven because God is a Consuming Fire--the one who attaches himself with sinful practices will be destroyed with the devil and his angels.

Ok so you want him Mohammed( s.a.w) to be like " oh i know i'm going to heaven, so screw you losers. byes i'm gone" I'm sorry but the prophet (s.a.w) wasn't like the selfish people of today. He was humble and even though he WILL go to heaven he didn't prayed to Allah (swt) to sent him to heaven and hoped just like all of us. He didn't sit there showing off the fact that he's a prophet (s.a.w). That's what makes him perfect. I guess that concept is TOO hard for you to understand. I swear those quotes make it CLEAR that he WAS perfect and humble and not like the retarded people today. Too bad you don't understand that.

In a way you just said people who say " oh i KNOW i'm going to heaven." are better then people who say " i hope and i pray i go to heaven."

Jesus cast jinni(jinns) more one quotation in the Bible, meaning it's divine. Do not confuse the people with your theological rhetoric.
