Wa alaykum salam,

Brother, reading ayats and surahs from the quran in and of themself without the intention of doing an 'amal' (in which case you wouldn't be reading them 40 times for example) is ok and you don't need any permission.

However, doing so with intention of amal can be harmful if you don't do it under supervision of somebody that knows about it. Yes, I would say kamil shaykhs of tareeqas would have knowledge in this matter (although I don't think they would be keen on lay people contacting jinn).

Also, even trustworthy amils that have learnt it already would be able to direct you. They should have a teacher themselves.

This kind of thing isn't something that you read from a book and start practising.

Aslamaalikum brother,

Thank you so much for your reply. So what can we do please guide since my mother did not know. does any one know of some sheik that we can contact. See if you talk to some people they say oh no nonno reading quran can never have strong effects but some people say that Surah Muzamil is very jalali strong and can have a devastating effects if not read under supervision. I am not sure what to do please guide.
