Yeah, I know it sounds pretty creepy, it really is, but it's a reality too!
A lot of non-Muslims call these things ghost. However, in Islam there's no such thing. It's actually Jinn. These are being made of smoke-less fire that live among us everyday. We cannot see them however they can see us. Yup, that's right! Right now, even as you are reading this you have them all around. They can be good or bad, Muslim, Christian, Jewish or polytheist.
If you're Muslim you shouldn't be afraid. After all we have a whole chapter in the Qur'an dedicated to them, Jinn. Just make sure you don't have ANY pictures displayed in your home and recite the entire Qur'an in your household ever month. Prayer, Dhikr, Religious fasting, Adkar As-Sabah & Al-Masae. And you're good to go... or maybe you will start to see real creepy changes in your environment. May Allah protect you all Ameen! If you do have problems with Jinn (also known as the Unseen) you should contact a Roqi that is on the Sunnah. But beware of who you seek help from, they could be sorcerers in disguise too.
I can't say the same for anyone pertaining to other faiths. Sorry. I am actually being serious. Those movies about exorcism, possessions, hauntings all start of by saying "based on true facts". In other words, the producer is saying: "this is true events but because of the graphic nature of this movie, we wouldn't want you to question the Truths of Life sending you into mass panic." Oh yeah, those movies on voodoo & witchcraft (I'm not talking about Harry Potter folks... that's fantasy), that stuff really exist and yes it does affect everyday people.
Now, some crazy people like to go "Ghost Hunting". They make shows about it on TV. Little do they know what they are looking for, they actually can find in there bathroom, lol, their home. Most of the things you see on these shows are fake anyways. The Jinn live in dirty places, abandoned homes,cities and ruins. Places where the name of Allah is not announced. For muslim household, this is in the bathroom... I can only imagine where they are for non-muslims. Scary.
Some people reading this may say "I don't believe what you're tell me!" Well, thats normal because you have never had an encounter and you should be say Alhamdulillah for that blessing! But I have had encounters on several occasions. Being that I'm muslim things finally make sense and I'm grateful to have the knowledge & resources to deal with Jinn problems. I'm not possessed people! Relax! I'm simply extremely aware of my surroundings and of people with affliction!
In Islam, Muslims know about Ayn, Hassad & Sihr (evil eye, Envy & Magic). These are really bad things. So bad that it is a major sin and could possibly land you in Hell-Fire.
There are ways of protecting yourself from it too: Praying regularly, making Istighfar, reading duaas for protection, being thankful & grateful for what you have, being a well-wisher towards others, not practising magic nor seeking aid from those who do, do not be jealous of others,
DO NOT BRAG ABOUT YOUR LIFE
AND HOW GREAT IT IS ONLY TO
RUB IT IN PEOPLE'S FACES.
These are only to name a few, but keep in mind that it is not meant to affect everyone. Imagine, saying a simple Bismillah before you eat, clothe, undress, open gifts, etc. can protect you! Only the chosen from Allah Subhana Wa Ta'Ala get these kinds of problems. Now before you think I'm trying to portray these things as being something to achieve and be proud of having... Uhmm no that's not it! Keep in mind Allah afflicts those that HE Loves most with a calamity only to bring them closer to HIM (there are different degrees of calamities... these kinds of afflictions are very different than global 3rd world problems). And keep in mind that Allah does not place a burden too grand on HIS servant and the slightest of pain removes sins.
I find a lot of people who are afraid of getting Ayn because they are givers of Ayn themselves.
And a lot of good people that come from difficult walks of life
fall prey to jealous eyes because of their
good & understanding nature.
May Allah Protect us from the harm of the Unseen. Ameen
May Allah keep us firm upon the deen. Ameen
May Allah Forgive us for our sins. Ameen
May Allah Protect us & keep away from us anyone of ill intentions. Ameen
May Allah Surround us with people that want good for us in this life and the Akhira. Ameen
May Allah Guide us to Him. Amen
Take care & InshaAllah khair
