Question

I have a very rare and important question regarding someone's life. Can you tell me is it legal in Islam to have someone marry one of female jinn by force without their knowing and by deceiving them? Is it allowed in Islam to marry Jinns? Please in need of an urgent fatwa.

Answer

It is not permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
