the thing is i am pearson always seeking for naswers i believe there is an answer for everything, alot of times when it happens i can move my hand so i try to pull myself up, a month would go by then out of nothing i feel the presence in my room sometimes i would be praying when i feel it and thats how i know its back nothing to do with stress also it dosent mater tired or not, scared or not.

and one site said "Recurrent kaboos. This kind of kaboos indicates that a person has been harmed by evil spirits." End quote.

it may be nocturnal epilepsy, or more formally Autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy

When I was 13 or so I used to wake up with scratches on my back and my my t shirt folded on other side of room, never remembered anything but have put it down to the effects of anxiety due to starting school.
 
:sl:

Same thing happened to me, and I believe you should read Aiyat ul quarsi
The second you read it you will feel better & everything will be fine. :)
:w:
 
gulp..... nightmare, eyes open, cant move, fear, no voice. no movement, pressure on certain part of body... normally leg... or weight on end of bed...

this has happened to me a few years back.... 3 times... while i was trying to convert to islam.... "transition phase" of conversion.....

hasnt happened in ages.. allhamdilliah.

still get scared occasionally though.

thing things are around me and stuff... watchinf me whilst i make wudu, or at sleepy time....

i had a vision last week.

gulp

in between sleep and wakefullness....
i zoned out.... started daydreaming about living on a farm, i walked into the power generator room and it was full of static... i walked to the middle of the room and i could feel the static.loads of static... i looked to my right and a white angel/jinn thing moved towards me, i fell and snapped out of my trance.... my hairs were all standing on end and i could feel the static...

:( scaredy cat. big time.
 
actually the sleep paralysis is extremely rare but a normal occurrence and not jin posession. , i read about it a while ago in my psychology book. when you go to sleep and hit REM sleep you mind disconnects from your body thus paralyzing it. most people dont wake up when they have hit REM sleep but it has happened and they experience paralysis for a bit because the paralysis has not worn off yet. sort of like when you reboot your computer it takes time for for the icons to load before you can click on them. the condition is due to an ill-timed disconnection between the brain and the body. Sleep paralysis is the result of premature (or persistent) mind-body disconnection as one is about to enter into (or exit from) REM sleep.

Is there any pray that could be said to stop it from coming back. I'm having this every night for the past week. If your going to describe it as SP, it's bull****!!
 
one of the ways to protect one self from sleep paralysis/ jinn is when you lie down to sleep read the following dua

The prophet (PBUH) said who ever rests in a place, sleeps or sits and reads this dua nothing can harm him, no jinn or poisonous animal etc. As long as he stays there and does not move from that place.

Among the saheeh du’aa’s for refuge that have been narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) are:


“A’oodhu bi kalimaat Allaah al-taammaati min sharri maa khalaq"


(I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allaah from the evil of that which He has created).”(Narrated by Muslim, al-Dhikr wa’l-Du’aa, 4881)

A sahabah came and said "I was stung by a scorpion last night when i was sleeping in a valley. He (pbuh) said not even the scorpion would have harmed you had you read this dua.

And Allah (swt) does Know Best
 
happened to me umpteenth time until it stopped a few years back..first time this occured, i thought it was death for me...then when it went off, i prayed..then it came on and off..initially, it was scary....but soon, became irritating...the most frustrating thing about this is that i couldn't even move my tongue to recite the Ayat al Kursi...Subahanallah...maybe my faith wasn't strong then? Allahu a'alam...
 
**** it happened to me once, it was 5-6 yrs ago i woke and realise i could move. no matter how hard i try and also i couldnt speak. then i realised there was a lot of water coming out of my eyes there was a clock and i saw it was ticking so that made me realise that it wasnt dream. then after a long time i got up and started crying.

ufff i recall that and i feel so scared but thank god it never happend again.
 
Salams,

I don't think sleep paralysis and the jinn are connected. Allah knows best.

I have had both encounters, sleep paralysis, I think it's because of lack of circulation, body weight, anemia or stress, or leaning on your body on one side too much while asleep.

The other occasion was when I went outdoors to bringing in my cat and I felt a dark giant was behind me and somehow my foot got stuck into the road and my back being pressed down...in no time I was on the ground. I felt like something was pressing me down and crushing, burning feeling started happening on my foot ankle and leg and back pressed down, I thought may I am having heart attack so I said the kalima, and I prayed to Allah and I said this wasn't the right time to go because of my young kids being left all alone, and then that burden went away. In fact this happened another time in the kitchen when I had a lot of trauma, both times I was under immense stress and unhappiness.

I think I would call that close to having a stroke.

Forget the Jinn, they are tonally useless, it's a waste of time and effort even thinking about them.

Keep yourself healthy and in good Iman. Trust Allah, in the end we all have to return to Him.

Wasalam

^ The time I was in the kitchen and I felt something heavy was on me, I couldn't even breathe even when I tried.

The other time I when I was out to get the cat, it was midnight, quite eerie and not a sound anywhere, I was in the middle of the road and it seemed bumpy that's when I thought it was strange what could happen if say someone fell here, could easily get knocked by a car, my cat was giving me strange glare, it just stared into my eyes in a really weird way, then I tried to get it but that's when it happened, when my foot got stuck. So when I was on the ground, after I said the Kalima, it went away and I wasn't sure what limbs I could move, the foot that was stuck, was weak and I had to limp back home. I had a huge swelling and a bruise when I took the shoe off. Had to go to the emergency as I couldn't walk and this bruise lasted me 6 months. I realized that I may have got diabetic. I was eating too many sweets, chocs when I was depressed and every I ate something sweet the same foot would swell up again. When I did some research I found out that sugar can become very poisonous to the body.

I have left sugars since and my foot has healed & I've not had any kind of problem since.

As for sleep paralysis the cure is again don't have sugars and do plenty of exercise.

I can vouch that reciting Ayatul Kursi really does remove nightmares, subhan Allah.

Okay guys it's past 3.00 pm - No more talk of jinns tonight! :)

LOL...yes..i agree on the ayatal Kursi part...
 
Of course Ayat-ul-kursi should be reading before sleeping every night, alongwith the 3 Kul-Surahs and Surah Al Mulk and The Shahadah.

In my opinion the phenomenon described by the OP seems to be a case of hypnagogic/hypnopompic hallucinations, it's happened to me a few times and the first time I freaked out but later I learnt it's just a normal thing. It feels very REAL though, like I'm trying so hard to speak and move but I can't...I didn't have the shaking episode though, that would worry me about epilepsy or other related conditions.

Sometimes doctors do polysomnography(sleep studies) for this purpose...but usually that's done for stuff like sleep-walking, sleep-talking etc.
