Worldwide Victims of Exorcism or Witchcraft
Last month in the city of Milwaukee, an autistic American boy has died during an aggressive exorcist ceremony held by members of the Faith Temple Church to supposedly cure him of the evil spirits.
Those involved in the ceremony, were arrested shortly after the incident on suspicion of physically abusing the child. In January 2003, a Japanese exorcist has been arrested along with his eight "disciples" on suspicion of fraud, after taking millions of yens in fees for performing exorcism rites on the public. A 1991 exorcism in Florida of a young girl was filmed for US network television.
Media reports say that in other countries such as Greenland and Swaziland, top civil servants used exorcists to chase away evil spirits in government offices and promote better harmony between the employees. These incidents had prompted local indignation.
It is reported that Pope John Paul II himself performed exorcism during his papacy. The boom in new religions and the growth in spiritual confusion are being blamed for the rising tide of exorcisms or witchcraft being performed around the world without distinction between cases of mental illness and demonic influence.
Historical background
Many religions in various parts of the world continue the practice of exorcism. In the Christian and Jewish traditions, exorcism is an adjuration addressed to demons or evil spirits to force them to abandon a possessed object, place, or person; technically, a ceremony used in religious traditions to expel demons from persons who have come under their power.
In general, the term exorcism denotes prayers to "curb the power of the devil and prevent him from doing harm. The rites and practices to ward off or to expel evil spirits are also a form of exorcism. In the Roman Catholic Church, exorcism is an order that priests may practice with special permission.
It is mainly used as a preparation for the sacrament of baptism. This practice is usually performed by a priest, shaman or a person with special religious authority, with a Bishop's permission.
In the first two centuries of the Christian era, the power of exorcism was considered a special gift that might be bestowed on anyone, lay or cleric. About AD 250, however, there appeared a special class of the lower clergy, called exorcists, to whom was entrusted this special function.
About the same time, exorcism became one of the ceremonies preparatory to baptism, and it has remained a part of the Roman Catholic baptismal service. The exorcism of persons possessed by demons is carefully regulated by canon law in the Roman Catholic Church, and the elaborate rite is contained in the Roman ritual.
Exorcism Today
The leading Christian exorcist Father Jeremy Davies, from the Westminster Diocese, believes that the incidence of the demonic influence on the whole is rising. To cope with the modern rise in demonic influences, more exorcisms need to be performed and thus the Vatican is promoting greater distribution of its new manual on exorcism.
In Britain, each Catholic diocese has an exorcist, but they are forbidden to speak publicly about the ritual and are rarely identified. One new rule by the Vatican is to ban media coverage of exorcisms.
The Japanese exorcist is suspected of charging more than 1,000 people between 30,000 and 1 million yen (253-8,449 dollars) for an exorcism.
A church pastor in Swaziland has performed a ceremony to cleanse the offices of Swaziland's government officials.
Reverend Advent Dlamini, performed the rituals by reading out biblical verses condemning devilish activities in the office in front of journalists and the entire staff.
New Guidelines
In January 1999, the Roman Catholic Church has revised its exorcism rituals for the first time in nearly 400 years. Pope John Paul II himself has approved the guidelines for deciding when and how to perform exorcisms, last issued in 1614.
Except for some new formulas for priests authorised by bishops to read during exorcisms, the text is largely unchanged. What is new is the caution that determines if exorcism is warranted.
"The exorcist will decide with prudence" after consulting with spiritual experts and "if considered opportune, with experts in medical and psychiatric science," the new rules stress.
The rite of official Roman Catholic exorcism itself remains essentially the same, including making the sign of the cross, sprinkling holy water and ordering the devil to leave the possessed person.
In November 2000, the Catholic Church has issued strict new rules governing exorcism. Vatican insiders say the guidelines - which include getting permission from a bishop, and discouraging media coverage - are aimed at controlling a popular African bishop who lives in Rome.
Emmanuel Milingo was summoned to Rome 18 years ago from his native Zambia when European missionaries complained that he was using the practices of African witchdoctors.
The new guidelines say the atmosphere at exorcisms must be kept under control. "Anything resembling hysteria, artificiality, theatricality or sensationalism should be absent from such gatherings, above all on the part of those who are in charge," one said.
A Vatican commission of theologians and liturgists has been working on the manual for the past 20 years. It retains much of the symbolism of the original, but tones down the most aggressive imprecations against the devil.
Part of this article is from www.islamweb.net
I have started out with this article to show the importance and need for proper knowledge of Ruqyah (exorcism) to be spread out around the world by the will of Allah.
Regarding how sihr (magic) begins to take effect on victims:
In Sword against Black Magic and Evil Magicians, Wahid Abdussalam Bali goes on to say,
"The agreement between a Sahir (magician) and a Demon"
In most cases, an agreement is set up between a sahir (magician) and a demon, requiring that the former commit certain pagan rituals, wether secretly or openly, and the latter provide the services he needs or send someone to do the job. Usually the agreement is set up between a sahir and one of the chiefs of the tribe of the jinn and demons. The chief instructs one of the tribes disrespectful demons to work for the sahir, obeying it's orders and informing him of past events, causing seperation of a man from his wife, a love spell between two people, making someone incompetent and other conditions.
Distinctive Features of A Sahir's Work
If you find one of these following charcteristics in a person who treats people suffering from sihr or other relate illnesses, then this person is definetly a sahir (magician).
1.) He asks the patient his and his mother's names.
2.) He takes a sweaty garment from the patient (a piece of cloth, hat ect..)
3.) He sometimes asks for an animal, with certain specifications, in order to slaughter it without saying the name of Allah. He may use the sacrificial blood to stain some painful areas of the patient, or throw the carcass in on a ruined site.
4.) He writes incantations.
5.) He recites unclear incantations
6.) He gives the patient a hijab (incantation written on a piece of paper), which contains squares within which letters or figures are written.
7.) He instructs the patient to isolate himself/herself in a dark room and to not talk to people for a certain period of time.
8.) He sometimes instructs the patient to not touch water for a certain period of time, usually forty days. This indicates the this particular jinn working for the sahir is Christian.
9.) He gives the patient some items to bury in the ground.
10.) He gives the patient some pieces of paper to burn to use as incens for their body.
11.) He murmurs unclear words.
12.) He sometimes informs the patient his name, his town and the reason for his visit.
13.) He writes broken letters on a piece of paper (hijab) or on a plate made of white porcelain, and instructs the patient to dissolve the writing in water, and then drink it."
Shaykh Sulaymaan al-‘Alwaan (www.islam-qa.com) had this to say about practioners of magic:
"Magic in all its forms in haraam according to all divinely-revealed laws, and there is scholarly consensus that magic and learning magic are haraam. Magic goes against that which the Messengers brought and it opposes the purpose for which the Books were revealed. Most of the scholars were of the view that the one who practices magic is a kaafir whom the authorities are obliged to execute.
“But neither of these two (angels) taught anyone (such things) till they had said, ‘We are for trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)’”
[Quran al-Baqarah 2:102]
This proves that magic is kufr (disbelief).
Magic
In The Exorcist Tradition, Bilal Phililps
Real Magic is the product of satanic intervention. Both the acts of magic and the effects of spells on humans involve the agency of jinn. Al-Aaloosee addressed the issue saying, saying, " What is meant by magic is an act which resembles a miracle but is not, because it (magic) is learned. And in order to perform it, the help of the devil is sought by pleasing him with abominable acts. [These acts may be in the form of ] statements, like incantations containig phrases of shirk (polytheism) and praises of satan; acts like acts, like planet worship, and an adherence of crime and licentiousness;and beliefs, like the preference and love of whatever is neccessary to please [the devil]. " [ Rooh al-Ma'aanee, vol.1, p.338.] ll
Dr. Umar al-Ashqar explicitly stated, "Real magic is that in which the magician relies upon the devil. Our (Rubb) Lord, whose knowledge encompasses all things, has informed us that it was the devils who who taught mankind magic: "And they followed what the devils used to read during the rule of Sulaiman(Solomon - peace and blessings be upon him); and Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the devils disbelieved - they teach people magic; and that which was sent down to the two angels, Harut and Marut in Babylon; and the two (angels) never taught a thing to anyone until they used to say, "We are only a trial, therefore do not lose your faith" and they used to learn that by which they cause division between man and his wife; and they cannot harm anyone by it except by Allah’s command; and they learn what will harm them, not benefit them; and surely they know that whoever bargains for this will not have a share in the Hereafter; and for what an abject thing they have sold themselves; if only they knew!" [Quran 2:102]
A good example of the relationship of magic to possession can also be seen in the incident in which 'Abdulla ibn Mas'ud found his wife wearing a knotted cord necklace and asked her about its purpose. She informed him that it was given to by a Jewish magician and that a spell had been placed on it to stop her eye from discharging, which it did. Ibn ' Mas'ud snatched it from her neck, told her it was caused by a jinnee, who desisted when the spell was placed on her." [See Sunan Dawud, vol.3, p. 1089, no.3874] j
Symptoms of Magic for Seperation of two people:
1. A sudden change from love to hate
2. A great deal of suspicion is aroused by between the two parties concerned
3. No excuses are accepted by either party even if one of them is in the wrong
4. Exaggerating the causes of disputes between two people even if they may be trivial
Changing the mental image of that they have for each other so that they see the other one in an ugly way even even though the other one might be beautiful. in reality it is the demon who is entrusted with the task of performing this type of sihar is the one who would appear to the person as the other in a ugly way
The person affected by sihar hates anything that the other person does
The person affected by sihar also hates the place in which the other party stays. For instance, a husband may be in a good mood when he is out doors but when he gets home he feels quite depressed
According to Ibn Kathir, the cause of seperation between two spouses through this sihr is that each of them appears to the other as an ugly or ill mannered person. (Tafsir ibn
Kathir1:144) ds
More symptoms will be added of one who suffers from magic and possession soon, insha allah. In the meantime I have listed below the formula for removing harm from possession, magic and envy. May Allah make this to be beneficial for you
I ask Allah to cure you with a cure that leaves no trace of illness and problems.
Seek help from Allah and have unshakable trust in Him, He is the Best
Protector and Most Merciful. Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {Is not Allah Sufficient for His slave?} [Quran 39:36]. He also Says: {And if Allah touches you with harm, none can remove it but He, and if He touches you with good, then He is Able to do all things.} [Quran 6:17]. Allah also Says: {And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him.} [Quran 65:3]
First, give up all kinds of complex thoughts and delusions. They strike one only when his faith is distorted, or when he fails to have the strong trust in Allah, and does not have the sufficient knowledge of Shariah. Ibn Qayyim said: "A bewitched person brings harm for himself because he gets attracted by something and heeds to it thus it overrides his heart due to his deep love
and attraction"
In addition, one should bear in mind that the supplications are like a weapon which itself cannot bring any benefit rather the benefits depend on its user, how effectively he uses the weapon. Therefore, one should supplicate using the authentic supplications properly i.e. the heart should act in accordance with the tongue besides having strong faith in Allah.
Third, reciting Qur'an, and authentic supplications upon the affected person could dispel the effect of magic and evil eye.
Fourth, avoiding to become entrapped by jugglers and magicians who take away peoples' money wrongfully. The Prophet said: "Whoever goes to a soothsayer or a fortune-teller and believes him he has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him)." [Authentic narration by Ahmad]
Fifth, being steadfast on the path of Shariah internally and externally. The Prophet (Salla Allahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: Do not go beyond the limits of Allah, Allah will protect you...[Authentic narration by al-Tirmidhi]
Ibn Qayyim said: "Most of the time evil Jinn affect only due to lack of sound Islamic knowledge and ruination of hearts." He also quoted from some Salaf as saying: "If a heart is full of the remembrance of Allah and Satan comes near to such heart, he (the person) will strike down the Satan. The other Satans will come to their defeated fellow and ask about what happened to him? It will be said that the human being has affected him."
Know that the conspiracy of Satan is very weak; nothing will befall you except what had already been decreed by Allah. So, by being steadfast on the path of Shariah, following the rulings of Shariah and avoiding the prohibitions you may protect yourself from Satans of Jinn as well as those of human beings.The Ruqyah for Sihr (magic) possession and envy

From the evil of the one who instils evil thoughts in the hearts – and stays hidden. Those who instil evil thoughts into the hearts of men. Among the jinns and men.”
In addition to this, one can seek refuge in Allaah by saying the following supplications:
“Adh-hibil-ba’sa rabban-naasi washfi antash-shaafee laa shifaa’a illaa shifaa’uka shifaa’an laa yughaadiru saqamaa.”
(“Remove the suffering, O Lord of mankind, and heal it perfectly –You are the true healer; there is no cure except Your cure – a cure which is not followed by sickness.”)[65]
“A‘oodhu bi kalimaatillaahit-taammati min kulli shaytaanin wa haammatin wa min kulli ‘aynin laammah.
(“I seek refuge with the perfect words of Allaah from every devil, poisonous pest and every harmful evil eye.”)[64]

"I commend you to the protection of Allaah's perfect words from every devil, vermin and every evil eye.", "I take refuge in Allaah's perfect words from the evil He has created.", "In the Name of Allaah with whose name nothing is harmed on Earth nor in the heavens and He is the Samee' (The All-Hearing), the Al-'Aleem (The All-Knowing)". One should read each of the above supplications three times then blow on the water and olive oil. The patient should drink the water and massage his body with it (or have someone massage him). But the patient should believe that the cure is from Allaah and that the treatment is beneficial only with the Will of Allaah.
The Evil Eye
A part of Islamic traditional belief is the concept of a type of glance capable of casing harm to those whom it befalls. Shaykh Muhammad al-Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen was asked: Can the evil eye afflict a person? How is it treated? Does being on one's guard against it contradict putting one's trust in Allah? He replied: Our opinion concerning the evil eye is that it is real and is proven both by Islamic teachings and by real life experiences. Allah says “And verily, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes (through hatred)”[al-Qalam 68:51]
Ibn ‘Abbaas and others said, commenting on this verse: this means, they put the evil eye on you with their glances. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The evil eye is real and if anything were to overtake the divine decree, it would be the evil eye. When you are asked to take a bath (to provide a cure) from the influence of the evil eye, you should take a bath.” Narrated by Muslim. Al-Nasaa’i and Ibn Maajah narrated that ‘Aamir ibn Rabee’ah passed by Sahl ibn Haneef when he was bathing… and he quoted the hadeeth. Reality confirms that and it cannot be denied.
The Muslim has to protect himself against the devils among the evil jinn and mankind, by having strong faith in Allah and by putting his trust in Him and seeking refuge with Him and beseeching Him, reciting the prayers for protection narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), reciting al-Mi’wadhatayn [the last two soorahs of the Qur’aan], Soorat al-Ikhlaas, Soorat al-Faatihah, and Aayat al-Kursi.
The following are dua's the Prophet Muhammad may allah exalt his mention, made for protection from any harm. Sometimes it is ineffective to do the following supplications and one has to actually go to the person (such as described above) whom may have caused their envious eye to fall onto them and ask them to perform a type of wudu water that the person whom has been affected will have to put onto his back by throwing it over his head. The wisdom behind Allah sending us to sometimes have to ask someone for their water is that it allows the person whom envies to realize the severity of envying. This should insha Allah cause them to be more thankful to Allah for the blessings that they do have so they will not be punished for their envious ways.1st

Exorcisms |
Fatwa |
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions. |
just wanted to inquire about the cures for magic or jinn possessions. I will post some symptoms of the person concerned * sudden loss of interest in socializing, even with very close relatives. * unexplained physical and mental pressures when reciting the Qur'aan or the kalima or namaz. * nervousness of being with people or looking at people, this could be explained as lack of confidence but it is not, the person concerned is quiet confident. Another sign is that other people that come in contact with that person become nervous which can be detected from their appearance. * sudden significant DECREASE IN MEMORY, even though the person concerned has had very good memory in the past and has won prizes in Qur'aan memorization competitions and he is just a teenager to have brain diseases such as Alzheimer. * all these symptoms have started quite at the same time about 2-3 years a go and has worsen since (except the memory problem which started in the last 15 months). * his fathers family have contacts with people that practice magic and the person concerned has no good relations with his father and his relatives. I would really thank u for your input on whether this might be caused form magic or jinn possession (or not), and if it is, the possible cures for them. |
Fatwa |
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger, may Allaah exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
The symptoms that you had mentioned about the patient like neglecting to socialize with people, mental and physical pressures when reading the Qur'aan, getting nervous when being with people or looking at them, sudden loss of memory, and the fact that the people who get near to him or deal with him get nervous as well, and so forth, are more likely to be magic rather than being possessed by Jinn. No matter what the condition is, the cure is in the Book of Allaah. Allaah says (interpretation of meaning): {And We send down from the Qur'aan that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe (in Islaamic Monotheism and act on it).}[17:82]. It is also reported that the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, used to make Ruqyah (to read some Qur’aanic verses and prophetic supplication) by reading chapters number: 112, 113, and 114. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said: "These chapters are the best for seeking refuge in Allaah." [Muslim] A treatment for magic is to read the verses in which magic is mentioned or have someone read over the patient, like the saying of Allaah (interpretation of meaning): {Then when they had cast down, Moosaa (Moses) said: "What you have brought is sorcery, Allaah will surely make it of no effect. Verily, Allaah does not set right the work of Al-Mufsidoon (the evil-doers, corrupts, etc.)}[10:81]. One can also protect himself by the legislated mention of Allaah, like the designated remembrance of the morning and the evening, and by being in a state of ablution all the time. Another method of treatment for the patient is to read or have someone read for him the verses of the Qur'aan on water and oil, like reading the beginning of chapter As-Saaffaat [37] and the Ad-Dukhaan [44]. In addition to this, one can seek refuge in Allaah by saying the following supplications: "I commend you to the protection of Allaah's perfect words from every devil, vermin and every evil eye.", "I take refuge in Allaah's perfect words from the evil He has created.", "In the Name of Allaah with whose name nothing is harmed on Earth nor in the heavens and He is the Samee' (The All-Hearing), the Al-'Aleem (The All-Knowing)". One should read each of the above supplications three times then blow on the water and olive oil. The patient should drink the water and massage his body with it (or have someone massage him). But the patient should believe that the cure is from Allaah and that the treatment is beneficial only with the Will of Allaah. This person has to repent to Allaah about the bad relations with his father. It could be that what had happened to him was due to bad relations with his father. The family of the patient has to cut relations with the people who practise magic, as magic is one of the seven destructive great major sins. Indeed it is forbidden to go to magicians as this is considered one of the greatest major sins. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said: "A person who goes to a soothsayer or magician or diviner and asks him (about something) and believes his sayings, he has indeed disbelieved in what has been revealed to Muhammad, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam (i.e. the Message of Islaam.)." [Al-Bayhaqi and Abu Ya’laa] Allaah knows best. |

I am a good educated girl. al hamdulilaah. but I heard that some of the bad people I know some bad people of low educational status who are doing what we call siher, amal, shawatha, going to a witch or someone to do me harm by that sihir. I know it is Haram to go to witches to deactivate this Siher. What can I do? Do I go to a Shaikh to read Qur'an on me or what ? Please inform me about this. Thank you so much for this great site. |
