*_Protection against Spiritual Attacks_*. BismilLah.

Among the most important means of warding off the danger of sihr(spiritual attack) before it happens is seeking protection regularly as prescribed in Islam, making du’aa’ and reciting prayers seeking refuge that are narrated in the Quran and from the Prophet sallallahu alaihe wassallam. These include:

1. Seeking refuge with ALLAH Azzawajal from the jinns(spiritual beings). ALLAH Azzawajal says in the Quran, “And if an evil whisper comes to you from Shaytaan, then seek refuge with ALLAH. Verily, HE is All-Hearer, 

All-Knower”. [al-A’raaf 7:200].

The Prophet recommended what to say when we are angry or annoyed to avoid Satan taking over our behaviour at that moment which is: ‘A’uudhu Billaahi min al-Shaytaan il-rajeem (I seek refuge with ALLAH from the accursed Shaytaan).’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3108; Muslim, 2610). in another narration, you should go and perform ablution and if not lie down and keep quiet reciting the above weapon.

2. Reciting the last two Suurahs of the Qur’aan, al-Falaq and al-Naas) and Reciting Aayat al-Kursiy Regularly. ” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2058.

3. Reciting Suurat al-Baqarah regularly at home.”(Narrated by Muslim, 780).

5. The last verses of Suurat al-Baqarah regularly. (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4723; Muslim, 807).

All these recommended acts of worship must be maintained regularly with the intention of seeking protection and continued guidance from ALLAH Azzawajal alongside other azkaar  such as "Awuuzubikalimaatullahi taamaat min sharry Maa khalaq Wa min sharry qaasikin izaa waqab Wa min sharry naffaasaati fil uqad Wa min sharry haasiden izaa hasad Wa min sharryl waswaasil khannaas allazee yuwaswisu fii suduurinnaas minal jinnati wannaas. Meaning, Oh Allah, I seek refuge or protection with your perfect attributes or through your powerful words from every devil or evil that you've created and from the evil of darkness when it settles and from the evil of the blowers in knos (the witches) and from the evil of an envier when he envies, and from the evil of the retreating whisperer who whispers evil into the breast of mankind from among the jinn and mankind. 

Sheitaan cannot come near you when you regularly follow these recommendations especially when going out. For those who are already struggling with evil attacks, take the Quran as your companion by reciting and listening regularly especially even whilst sleeping or seek Ruqya (spiritual healing) from the sunnah method imams NOT fortune tellers, pastors etc as they also uses evil jinns to negotiate with the evil jinns possessing you and all these worsens your situation and it's forbidden and can cause disbelief in ALLAH Azzawajal. 

*_May ALLAH Azzawajal have mercy on us and keep protecting us from any satanic plot_*. Aameen.
