I have heard of cases where a jinn is used to 'check' up on someone without their knowledge and approval. Is this haram?

I have asked one of my teacher, and he replied that is HARAM.

I asked again, if it is HARAM in totality or conditional (ie is there any case/situation where asking help from jinn is permissible) and he replied it is HARAM TOTALITY.
(see my posting above #26, which I quoted Sheikh Wahid Abd Salam Bali writing in his kitab "Wiqayah al-Insaan Min al-Jinn Wa al-Syaithon")

And after that he recited the verse 70, surah al-Isra'
وَلَقَدۡ كَرَّمْنَا بَنِىٓ ءَادَمَ وَحَمَلْنَـٰهُمْ فِى الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ وَرَزَقْنَـٰهُم مِّنَ الطَيِّبَـٰتِ وَفَضَّلْنَـٰهُمْ عَلَىٰ كَثِيْرٍ۬ مِّمَّنْ خَلَقْنَا تَفْضِيلاً۬
Verily We have honoured the children of Adam. We carry them on the land and the sea, and have made provision of good things for them,
and have preferred them above many of those whom We created with a marked preferment.
He said, ALLAH swt has honoured us (humans) and has prefered us above many of His creations.

It is not "proper" for sons of Adam to ask from jinns as we are prefered by ALLAH above them. If anyone need asking help, it should be the other way round (ie the jinn seek assistance from us). Sons of Adam should ask help and seek help from ALLAH, not from a creation which is much lower in preference than us.

Wallaahu a'lam.

nb: Im just relaying what was explained to me by one of my teachers. May ALLAH swt forgive me if Ive not properly relayed the explaination.
