Question
Can jinnaat or magicians change the haqeeqat (nature/ reality) of matter? Like a Shaykh said once in a bayaan that the Jinn who brought the throne of Sheba had indeed changed matter into energy and then back to matter, that's why it was possible to transport the throne from such a long distance.
Answer
Jinn do have powers of transforming beings and bodies from one form to another. But the Shaikh has erred because the throne of Bilqis was not transformed nor brought to Nabi Sulaimaan (Alayhis salaam) by a jinn. It was delivered instantaneously by a Wali, and that was a karaamat. The idea of the throne having been converted from one form to another is baseless and in conflict with the explicit statement of the Qur'aan Majeed.
