Answer:
Magic and peace
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 none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear
witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His
Messengers.
Your Question: Someone
told me seher is there and it is written in Quran.I have no idea of all these. Please
guide from the light of islam.
Allah Says
in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 102:
102 They followed what the evil ones gave out (falsely) against the
power of Solomon; the blasphemers were not Solomon but the evil ones teaching
men magic and such things as came down at
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 7 Surah
Aaraaf verses 116-118:
116 Said Moses: "Throw ye (first)." So when they (the magicians) threw, they
bewitched the eyes of the people and struck terror into them: for they showed a
great (feat of) magic.
117 We put it into Moses's mind by inspiration: "throw (now) thy
rod": and behold! It swallows up
straightway all the falsehoods which they fake!
118 Thus Truth was confirmed and all that
they did was made of no effect.
According to the guidance of the Quran, there are two
types of magic.
- The
type of magic given by the two Angels Harut and Marut by the permission of
Allah Subhanah as a trial for the people, whereby the magic would cause
differences between a husband and a wife in marriage.
- The
second type is the magic was an illusion performed by the magicians in the
court of Pharoah, whereby their staff when thrown became a snake.
Thus to answer the question if ‘magic really exists’, the
answer in light of the guidance of the above absolutely clear guidance of the
Quran would be: ‘yes’!
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.
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verse 160:
If Allah helps you none can overcome you: if He
forsakes you who is there after that that can help you? In Allah then let believers put their trust.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 17:
17 "If Allah touch thee with affliction none can remove it but He;
if He touch thee with happiness He hath power over all things.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 33 Surah
Ahzaab verse 3:
And put your trust in Allah Alone; and enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 9 Surah Taubah verse 51:
Say: "Nothing
will happen to us except what Allah has decreed for us: He is our Protector"; and on Allah let the believers put their
trust.
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 3656 Narrated by Abu Musa al-Ash'ari
The Prophet (saws) said, "There are
three who will not enter Paradise: one who is addicted to wine, one who breaks
ties of relationship, and one who believes in (the effects of) magic."
Beloved
Brother, the first thing we, as believers, must understand that those who claim
to do magic do not have the power to hurt or benefit anyone, without the
permission of Allah Subhanah. No harm
and no benefit can happen to the believer without the Will of Allah
Subhanah. If Allah does not will it, all
the magicians of the world can get together and try their magic on someone,
they cannot harm him in the least!; for Absolutely All Power and All Strength belongs
to none save Allah Subhanah Alone!
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 (113th Surah Al-Falaq and 114th
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.

Marriage is indeed an
absolutely preferred Sunnah, and if at all it is possible for you to marry, you
should marry.
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 3096 Narrated by Anas ibn Malik
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said,
"When a man marries he has fulfilled half of the religion; so let him fear
Allah regarding the remaining half."
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.4 Narrated by Abdullah
We were with the Prophet (saws) while we were
young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah's Messenger (saws) said, "O
young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him
lower his gaze and guard his modesty, and whoever is not able to marry, should
fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.27 Narrated
by Abu Huraira
The Prophet (saws) said, "A woman is
married for four things, i.e., her wealth, her family status, her beauty and
her religion. So you should marry the religious woman (otherwise) you will be a
loser."
Your
Question: Please advice which dua shall i read in order to have peaceful mind
All Praise is due to Allah Subhanah Who has guided the
believers towards the ONLY thing that will bring contentment to one’s heart and
peace to one’s mind! The whole world is
desperately searching for this state of one’s heart, but little do they realize
that Allah Subhanah has reserved this state of contentment only for those who
unconditionally submit to Him and His Guidance!
The one secret every human being is searching for, and the absolute
antidote of depression and desperation is secured in this One Beautiful and
Glorious Verse of the Al-Quran:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 13 Surah
Raad verse 28-29:
The people who have accepted (the Message), their hearts find comfort in the remembrance
of Allah. Note it well!, that is Allah’s Remembrance Alone that brings
contentment to the hearts! Blessed
are those who have accepted the Message and done righteous deeds. They will have a good end.
Thus, my beloved brother in Islam, the one and only thing
in this whole wide world that can truly bring contentment to your heart and
peace to your mind, and take you far far away from the state of depression and
hopelessness, is the constant Remembrance of your Lord Creator, Allah Subhanah,
the Lord of the Worlds!
Remember your Lord as much and as often as you can, Praise
and Extol Him as much as is easy for you, read the Glorious Quran as much as
you can with understanding, obey, follow, and completely submit yourself to the
guidance of the Quran and the Sunnah, strive to do deeds which will bring about
the Pleasure of your Lord and abstain from doing deeds that bring about His
Anger and His Wrath….for Allah is our witness brother, nothing, and I repeat
and reiterate, absolutely nothing in this world can bring ‘contentment’ to
one’s heart except the Remembrance of Allah Subhanah, the Lord of the Worlds!
The more one strives to get closer to their Lord through
His constant Remembrance, the closer one will get to contentment; and the
further one is away from the Remembrance of their Lord Creator, the further
runs the ‘contentment’ of their hearts!
Reaching the state of ‘contentment’ and ‘peace’ is as simple as that!!!
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
