the only way you can be protected is through prayer and reading holy Qur'an. it can be possible something was done. this type of disease can get serious but it also runs in families, did you know that? i have met many asian people with this type red sores on there body like on arms and stuf.

as far as i know for a person to be really seriously effected with a disease due to black magic. they would have to be not practicing the deen at all so the protection that you get from Allah is limited

''Most certainly, my servants you cannot exercise control over them except those who are deviant who follow you''(Al-Hijr;42) '' Most certainly he satan has no power over those who truly cherish faith and our trusting upon there lord; rather his power is limited only to those who take him as a protecter (besides god) and thus associate partners with him.''(an Nahl; 99-100

When your daughter was born you were afraid that she should not get any evil eye so you dressed her in less attractive clothes believing that this would mabe protect her.. this is where we go wrong in our faith, we believe other things will protect you besides god.. that is where people make the mistake. you need to trust upon your creator sister. that would not protect anybody of evil eyes. its only Allah that can protect us from evil.

recite this daily Al-fatihah

the last three chapters of the holy qur'an surahs 112,113,114

ayat al-kursi Al baqurah

blow them on water and yous should all drink including your daughter.. do it daily.

read the 4quls on a regular basis both in morning and evening three times or more

sis catseyes

Believe me I always was wary of what I was being told and didnt really believe it. but to make my life easier with my in laws I just went along with it. I always believed that as long as your faith is strong enough then nothing like this can affect you.

inshAllah I pray that other people I know will learn the truth and will continue to come towards the path of Islam....ameen

Can you be blamed for your actions while you were under the black magic?

Not entirely because you will still be conscious of what you are doing but the effects of magic could sometimes be stronger then your will, it depends on your iman. When under the effects of magic you could also be possessed by jinns. The jinns who posses you are evil and they will make you sin and do things you may not normally do. For example, they may make you listen to music and make you dance to it as these are the activities the jinn who has possed you would normally do. In the process of such sinful deeds it will also have an effect on your iman and you may subsequently begin to incline towards these sinful activities since he will want you to get used to sinning.

This is why some people who were possesed or had magic done on them found it very hard to bring their iman back up once they were cured as it felt like a heavy burden to go back to their old routines of obedience to Allah. This condition is known as 'the desease of the heart' (of course it's a spiritual desease) because you are in a state between obedience and disobedience to Allah and to obey Allah could be an uphil task at first. In such cases the individual needs to push himself to stay in wudu (ritual purification) and to recite his daily supplications and all else that is recommended in order for you to go back to the way you used to be.

In certain ases it may also be recommended for that individual to get married once he is cured so he can have someone give him that constant reminder to obey Allah as opposed to being left to him self.

Hi sis

I understand that you are wary of superstitious thinking.

Now, I have no doubt that evil spirits are at work in this world, but to live in constant fear of them renders you helpless and imprisoned by fear.
Remember, that instilling fear in our hearts and doubt in God's power is one of Satan's greatest strategies!

If I was you I would pray for God's protection on you and your loved ones and trust in Him.

When I am fearful I find Ephesians 6:10-18 very useful.
(As a Muslim you may not agree with all of it, but you may find it helpful nonetheless, in terms of putting yourself mentally and spiritually under the protection of God. Perhaps there are similar passages in the Qu'ran, which you can draw strength from.)

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground.

Skye, I tried to PM you but couldn't ...

Can you give Rabiya any advice from a medical perspective?

I don't know the first thing about black magic but IBD's are very common in young people. In fact if an older person presented with an IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) I'd be concerned that it is something more sinister. I myself have had my bouts with gastrointestinal problems over the years...
I'd opt for medical treatment first and I'd supplement my life with du3a and salat. But I really can't give advise outside of that to some dark occult world of which I know nothing of. Know that no one can harm you with something that wasn't decreed, and that people who do evil will only beget evil

and Allah swt knows best

(I was sick of the hate pms I was getting that I shut off my pms) if anyone has anything snide to say to me they can take it in public!

all the best

Black Magic: Rulings & Remedy


...black magic is an undeniable fact, yet this does not mean when we face any problem we think that it should necessarily be a black magic.


...

the first and foremost requirement as regards dispelling black magic is to believe firmly that no one, however great his powers may be, can benefit or harm one except if Allah wills it. Then every Muslim should empower his/herself through practicing Islam, reading the Qur’an and consistency in dhikr and du`a’. In particular, one may do the following:





1) perform prayers regularly;



2) recite morning and evening supplications;


3) start everything in Allah’s Name and seek Allah’s Protection and Refuge before taking a bath;



4) recite or listen to the recitation of surat Al-Baqarah daily for some days (a week for instance); and


5) put his/her trust in Allah, invoke Him always and keep away from sins.

Immunity and Protection against Black Magic

Ahmad Kutty :

...Almighty Allah says: “Most certainly, My servants–you cannot exercise control over them except those who are deviant who follow you.” (Al-Hijr: 42)

“Most certainly he (Satan) has no power over those who truly cherish faith and are trusting upon their Lord; rather his power is limited only to those who take him as a protector (besides God) and thus associate partners with Him.” (An-Nahl: 99-100)

...
I give below a number of selections of verses of the Qur’an and du`a’ which you can recite on a regular basis:

1) Al-Fatihah

2) Last three chapters of the Qur’an (i.e., Surahs 112, 113, 114)

3) Ayat al-Kursi (i.e., Al-Baqarah: 255)

Besides the above, repeat the following du`a’s on a regular basis both in the morning and evening three times or more:

1) Bismillahi alladhi la yadurru ma`a ismihi shay’un fi al-ardi wa la fi as-sama’i wa huwa as-sami`u al-`alim

(In the name of Allah; with His name, nothing whatsoever on earth or heaven can inflict any harm; He is All-Hearing and All-Knowing).


2) Hasbiya Allahu la ilaha illa huwa `alayhi tawakkaltu wahuwa rabbu al-`arshi al-`azhim

(Allah suffices me; there is no god but He; in Him I place my sole trust; He is the Lord of the mighty Throne).


3) Allaahumma ini a`duhu bika min hamazati ash-shayatin wa a`udhu bika rabbi an yahdurun

(O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the whisperings of Satan; my Lord, I seek refuge in You from their presence around me).


4) A`udhu bi `izzati Allahi wa qudratihi mimma ajidu wa uhadhiru

(I seek refuge in Allah’s glory and power from the affliction and pain I experience and suffer from).


It is important to remember that du`a’ and dhikr will only benefit when it comes from a heart that firmly believes in Allah, and thus cherishes firm conviction in Allah’s power and sovereignty.”

brothers/sisters,

Ramadan is coming to an end soon, Muslim Woman's detailed post is excellent, please we should focus on our important last three days of Ramadan, and pray, recite, read, listen, and trust fully in Allah. Don't forget to pray thousands times to ask Allah for protections every times and every night. I did this method on my Imaan, it worked, Alhumdulilah.

I don't know anything about ulcerative colitis so can't say if it's possibe for it to be black magic or not. Someone told a relative of mine that black magic causes gastro-intestinal problems. One doctor in pakistan said that a neighbor of hers used to have joint pains and kept getting paler & paler everyday but all medical tests were normal. Then they found out it was black magic and when the item on which magic was done was distroyed, the person got better.

Black magic is really terrible and can make a person go mad. I remember one girl who had done dawah to her shia neighbors. After that she started getting waswasa that she was doing shirk, even when she stood for prayer she would get that waswasa and once when i saw her she looked like she was mad, like she was constantly battling with herself (in her mind). I believe she had black magic done on her. That was a long time ago and unfortunately i didnt know at the time so couldn't advise her.

So read the Surahs (that Sister Cat Eyes posted) and do dua. But get medical treatment as well. Additionally try to find the article that may have black magic done on. Pray to Allah to help you find it. Do you have any jealous friends/relatives who might have done it? If these sort of ppl have given you any gifts, get rid of them.

Also someone told me that if afflicted with black magic, one tends to see snakes in their dreams. Not sure how true that is. Do you or your husband see snakes in dreams? (I myself see lots of snakes in dreams.)

I feel I am forever battling this fear of black magic. it hapens on a daily basis. ANYTHING goes wrong and instantly its blamed on black magic. so what I wanted to know was whether there was any proof to show someone whether black magic has been done or not. I remember when my daughter was a baby, I was not allowed to dress her in beautiful clothes if we were going out in case someone did eveil eye on her and I was not allowed to say anything good about her. I was only allowed to talk about bad things about her, so again, people didnt do eveil eye on her.

Unfortunately some ppl from pakistan can't take another's happiness. For no reason (out of pure jealousy) they will do evil eye and black magic. The Prophet (SAW) said that the effect of the evil eye is a fact. So while it is true that you shouldn't go to such limits to try to keep evil eye from afflicting you, still you should not show off your riches etc. & if you feel that some ppl are of the jealous type then avoid them. Also read Surah Al-Falaq and Surah Al-Nas over your family and ask Allah to protect you from effects of evil eye.

Black magic is REAL. Idk why anyone would question it when there are hadiths etc about it.


My eldest brother and i were victims of black magic, and thank God my mom went to an Imam and got us help. Ever since the Imams visit we are doing great.
I have this short surah taped to my bedroom door and everyday as i am about to open it to walk out i read it.

I don't think anyone here is questioning whether it exists. but we are trying to find out the protection for it. which seems to be faith in Allah.

I was asking specifically whether there was a way described in the sunnah to find out if someone has been affectedby black magic.
