Section: 6: Sihr Al-Hawatif (Bad Dreams & Hearing Voices)
58
Symptoms1. The patient experiences nightmares.2. The patient sees in a dream as if someone were calling him.3. The patient hears voices talking to him when awake, but cannot see where these voices are coming from.4. The patient hears much whispering (Al-Waswas).5. The patient is very suspicious of his/her friends and relatives.6. The patient dreams of seeing himself/herself falling from a high place.7. The patient dreams of seeing himself/herself being chased by animals.
How this is AchievedThe sahir instructs a Jinn to appear to a person both in dream and in reality, in the form of savage beasts attacking him; to call him when awake in voices which he recognises and which he does not; to cause him to suspect people that are close to him and people who are not. Symptoms may vary according to the power and weakness of the sihr. They may increase to the point of reaching lunacy and may also diminish to the point of being a mere whispering.
Treatment1. Recite the Ruqyah of sihr to the partient. 2. If the patient becomes epileptic, treat him in the way prescribed above.3. If he does not become epileptic, advice him to do the following: a) Making wudhu' before going to bed and reciting ayatul kursi. [Al-Bukhari: (Fath Al-Bari: 1/357) and Muslim (An-Nawawi. 17/32)]b) Joining both arms closer to the face, reciting al-mu'awwizat (Qur'an:113 and 114), spitting onto the hands, and rubbing the body three times before going to bed . [Al-Bukhari: (Fath Al-Bari: 11/125)]c) Reciting or listening to As-saffat in the morning and Ad dukhan before going to bed. d) Reciting or listening to Al-Baqara every three days.e) Reciting the last two verses of Al-Baqara before going to bed. [Al-Bukhari: (Fath Al-Bari: 7/318) and Muslim (An-Nawawi. 2/920)]f) Saying the following supplication when going to bed: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَضَعْتُ جَنْبِي اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي وَأَخْسِئْ شَيْطَانِي وَفُكَّ رِهَانِي وَاجْعَلْنِي فِي النَّدِيِّ الأَعْلَ Transliteration: Bismillah wada'tu janbi, allahumma-ghfir i danbi wa akhsi' shaytani wa fukka rihani, wa-j'alni fi an-nadiyyi ala'la.Translation: In the Name of Allah, I have laid down ON my side O Allah! forgive me my sin, drive away my devil, free me from my responsibility, and place me in the highest assembly of angels.
