The dybbuk (דיבוק) is exclusively a Jewish concept and does not exist in any form in Islam. The Jewish dybbuk is the possession of a living person (usually but not exclusively female) by someone recently deceased (usually but not exclusively male) that had a strong emotional connection with that person (usually star-crossed lovers). None of the "usually-s" have to be the case; it is just more common that they are.
Islam does have concepts of spiritual and demonic possession, whence comes the term "mejanin" (مجانين). Mejanin is usually translated as "crazy people", but is more accurately translated as "people affected by the jinns". (Jinns are the most common form of demon in Islam.) Jinns, however, are living beings of a unique physical make-up, not dead former humans. In Islam, it is impossible for a dead spirit to inhabit the body of a living person.
