Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Salam,

We had taken a trip to Pakistan, along with my kids, brother and his family and my mom, on our return, we had a major change, some got sick and some have stopped talking to one other. My mother personality totally changed, morals and values have all gone. I beleive someone did (jadoo), black majic on my mom especially. I mean alot more happening. I need to know how can we find out if there is something major spell done on our family and secondly what can be done to prevent the spell off us? PLS, help me deselove this matter, its ruinning our terms with one other. I am sure there is something to get rid of the spell that cursed us and destroying us.

Answer:

Someone did magic

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

It is indeed unfortunate that whenever some affliction befalls someone which might be due to any number of reasons, and simply because one is unable to comprehend the reason, they automatically assumed that someone has invoked some magic or evil spell upon them! And although Islam guides that magic and evil-eye does exist, it does not mean that anyone and everyone can hurt or harm anyone of their choice by these methods if and when they will and please! Everything, absolutely everything in this Universe happens with the Will and Permission of Allah Subhanah Alone, and none has the right to harm or benefit anyone without His Precise Will and Permission. Thus one should not keep their trust on magic or the effects of evil-eyes, but rather the believers should keep their full trust and faith in the Power and Strength of none save their Lord and Creator, Allah Subhanah Alone.

Allah Says in His Holy Quran Chapter 35 Surah Fatir verse 2:

2 What Allah out of His Mercy doth bestow on mankind there is none can withhold: what He doth withhold there is none can grant apart from Him: and He is the Exalted in Power Full of Wisdom.

It is most likely that your mom met someone during her trip who said something to her that effected the change of her behavior towards her family; thus it would be best to patiently, politely, humbly and with absolute wisdom confront the subject with your mother and sort out the issue which has resulted in the change in her pattern of behavior rather than striving to search for an anti-magic spell!

Your Question: PLS, help me deselove this matter, its ruinning our terms with one other. I am sure there is something to get rid of the spell that cursed us and destroying us. 

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 1019 Narrated by Abu Sa'id al-Khudri

The Prophet (saws) used to seek protection against the Jinn and the evil eye till Surahs al-Falaq and an-Naas were revealed. After they were revealed, he (saws) stuck to them and discarded everything beside them.

If one fears any evil from any quarter whatsoever, one should recite the Muawwidaat (113^th Surah Al-Falaq and 114^th Surah An-Naas) thus seeking refuge in the One and Only Lord Most High. Allah is our witness brother, there is no other or better source of refuge or protection than in Allah Subhanah, the Lord of the Worlds. After one has recited the Muawwidaat and remained constant in its recitation, one should know and believe with absolute conviction that they are under the refuge and protection of none other than Allah Subhanah, and no amount or combinations of Jinns, or magic doers, or evil-eyes, or any harm can come towards them from any quarter.

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of never ever being misled; but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of being led astray.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
