Anxiety due to Jinn Experience

[AnonymousPoster]

I started becoming religious about 4 months ago, and straight after, i had a Jinn experience...i was sleeping at night, woke up, moved over to my side all of a sudden i was paralysed, couldn't speak, couldn't move...nothing, and until i said allah's name...it went. I didn't really realise what happened to me but all of a sudden i felt scared but didn't know why and i talked to one religious girls and she said it was a jinn. I wasn't really familiar with jinn's...just thought they lived in woods and came out at night...however i tried not to let what happened get to me. But then a few days after...i had a panic attack out of the blue and i didn't know why...then the following two weeks, i basically lost the plot, thought i was going crazy, thought i was dying. it was just all surreal. i had to go to a molvi who said i had a jinn with me who followed me everywhere and was causing me distress...he gave me a tasveeh and some holy water and inshallah i got better...however i started to develop anxiety and thought i was going to do, i thought i couldn't breathe and now my body has become depressed. from a bubbly fun loving girl who everyone said was always happy...i am not broken in pieces and i feel like theres no where out. i have hyprochrondia, severe headaches and i just don't know what to do anymore...i just pray to allah (swt) to get me out of this mess because i can't seem like a way out, i always think there's something wrong with me even tho i know there isn't...i just want to be back to me normal self and can't stop crying...i'm really trying to keep myself strong but i can't believe a jinn could ruin me like this

recite surat an-nas -al-falaq and ikhlaas and ayatul kursi, Allah will protect you inshAllah !

i know that but i'm going through anxiety and i don't know why, i always feel like something is wrong with me. i don't understand how a jinn experience can make me feel this way.

I don't know whether the paralysis thing is a Jinn or not, there is a condition called sleep paralysis, I used to get it a lot. But the fact that it went away when you said Allah's Name is a bit spooky...

sleep paralysis is the psychological perspective...it is actually a jinn...well thats what i've been told anyway because since ive been reading kursi and 4 qul's i don't get it.

Are you serious?

Anyway, that sounds terrifying. I hope you will overcome it, make lots of dua ask God for help.

your very correct.


mashAllah





my sister suggests you cover your hair before you go to bed and whilst sleeping as it attracts jinns

first do not fear anything except Allah (SWT) don't forget He is the creator of ALL.

-this "molvi" did he ask you your date of birth and mothers name etc?

-This is an illness and if it is from the unseen it needs to be treated in correct way according the Sunnah of the prophet (Saw).

i.A could you tell me if you have any strange dreams occasionally?

[alcurad]

sleep paralysis is not caused by jinn, as there is no evidence for such in the qur'an or sunnah to begin with, please do not mix cultural myths with Islam.

no he didnt, unfortunately i didn't actually get to see him. but he gave me what he thought would cure me.

whats the correct way of it being treated?

and no i don't have any dreams. just normal day to day dreams about my friends or family but hardly ever.

Jinn can't do anything to u if u don't let them. don't be afraid. Read the last 3 surahs of the qur'an 3 times each and then the Ayat al kursi. NOTHING will happen to u without Allah's will so pray to Allah for protection-and who is abetter protecter than Him? He created the Jinn, He can do whatever He wills.

If u read the ayah's from the qur'an about Allh's punishment it hurts the Jinn so do that. and when u recite ur dua's and surah's make sure u have the meaning in front of you. there isn't much point in reading something u don't understand

[ziyad786]

well you need to make sure if this is a pyshocological issue or related to jinn... my suggestion is to listen to surah bakarah. idealy ayatul kursi, followed by sura iklas, sura falaq and sura nas repeatdly. If you have a panic attack whilst doing that or feel of tremendous unease and desire to switch it of then it is highly likly to be jinn related.

my sister responds:

death is inevitable

at the end of the journey there is Allah
and whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet them

Assalamu Alaikum

i just don't know anymore because before i became religious...i was so happy and bubbly, nothing phased but every since i started praying, i worry about everything way too much and i dont understand why. maybe its a test from allal (swt).

Do what i suggested inshallah and don't worry. From my own experiance and hearing from others it is rather common to have problems of such when coming into the deen. Its shaytaan's way of trying to drag you down again from the true happiness. N ofcourse its a trial life is full of trials to test our commitment to Allah.

subhanAllah, you were ALWAYS suppose to worry!

you were ALWAYS suppose to be "phased" as you put it.

we arent suppose to be ignorant of the truth, the truth being the life which is coming after this one.

the here-after is everlasting, this life is temporary, maybe the way you were before was the flaw, and now that you have started to pray your heart has softened, and now you are able to see better.


indeed prayer lifts the veils from the heart,

[Ayesha Rana]

Well remember. When Allah wishes to favour His servant, He puts him through a trial and then rewards him for his patience insha'Allah so be patient. You turned to Allah and the Shaitan is mad at that. of course he's gonna try and mess things up for u. Shove him where he belongs.

[nadia030812]

i worry about stupid things like my health...when im perfectly healthy so i don't understand why i'm worrying. its like i have two minds...one telling me im going to die and im going to have a heart attacks or lung disease and then theres the real me who knows im being stupid. its hard to explain. but inshallah i need to fight the negative thoughts and i'll be ok. i know allah's testing me because i was so much happier before but much more happier now that i'm praying but i was never that religious before so i just think that obviously allah's going to test me to see how much i actually want to get closer to him cos its like i'm thinking...if i stop praying...maybe i'll be happy again...i know its shaytaan playing and messing with my head and inshallah i will never ever give in, no matter how hard it gets. please remember me in your dua's.
