Question

   What do the scholars of Islam say regarding the following issue: What is the reality of Hamzaad in light of Shari’ah? Who are the Hamzaad?

بِسْمِ اللہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

اَلْجَوَابُ بِعَوْنِ الْمَلِکِ الْوَھَّابِ اَللّٰھُمَّ ھِدَایَۃَ الْحَقِّ وَالصَّوَابِ

   Hamzaad is a type of Shaytan. Whenever a human has a child, one Jinn and one angel is also born alongside it. That Jinn is referred to as Waswaas in Arabic and Hamzaad in Persian. He incites a human towards evil. However, the Hamzaad of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم became a Muslim and instead of evil things, he would mention good things. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 21, p. 216; Fatawa Bahr-ul-Uloom, vol. 5, p. 256)

وَاللہُ اَعْلَمُ عَزَّوَجَلَّ وَرَسُوْلُہ اَعْلَم صَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم
