Assalaamu 'alaykum!
A crazed girl was brought to al-Wathiq, so, he said: “Send her to Ahmad bin Hambal.“
When she was brought to Ahmad, they asked him: “Please cure this crazed girl for us!“
So, he began to speak to the jinni that had possessed this girl, saying: “Get out of this girl! Get out of this girl!“
But it didn’t come out. He continued, saying: “Get out, or I’ll (and Ahmad began to threaten the jinni),” and the jinni came out, saying: “O Ahmad! You feared Allah, so, everything is afraid of you! You feared Allah, so, everything is afraid of you!“
The jinni waited until Ahmad bin Hambal eventually died, and it returned to possess the girl once again. So, they brought the girl to a shaykh – who, as it was said, is more like us than Ahmad bin Hambal – and he began to speak to the jinni, saying: “Get out, or I’ll…“
Suddenly, the jinni began to laugh, saying: “Ahmad bin Hambal has died; Ahmad bin Hambal has died…“
The Prophet (saw) said:
