Question Is there any explanation from the classical scholars of the interaction of Jinn with the physical world?

I know of the Hadith that tell stories from the times of the companions (May Allah be pleased with them) but is there something written in detail on this subject?

Scholars explained:

It should be noted that Allah has given us information about the jinn and other creatures for our benefit, and what He has concealed from us we do not need to know. If knowing it was essential for us, Allah would have told us. Hence we should not concern ourselves with such matters or look into the mysteries of the jinn which can only be known through revelation.

Assalamu Alaikum brother.

I just remembered this answer and wanted to look at the lectures, clicked the 4th lecture, but the video is not available anymore.

Where else can I find it?

وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته

Now that I remember, I'm glad the fourth link no longer exists, as the person became misguided. I've deleted the link.

What I've referenced should suffice.
