Seeking Protection from the Harm of the Jinn

The questioner:
A man left his house intending to go to work. He was in the car, and at first he did not notice, but after he honked the horn, he realized that the fan had stopped. Then he said he noticed that the fan had fallen out of the car, dragging a broken leg. He said that on the evening of that day, they were afflicted, and their house was abandoned for approximately 18 days, and he was in this state. For example, the fire would be lit in the house about three or four times a day.

The Shaykh:
It is possible that it is a jinn.

The questioner:
Yes, and he says it is with him.

The Shaykh:
He called upon them to take revenge, seeking refuge in Allah, saying: “I seek refuge in Allah from you, I seek refuge in Allah from you, I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created.” And I was not one who intentionally targeted the companions of the migration; whoever harms us with his own harm, he seeks refuge in Allah, in the perfect words of Allah, and asks to be delivered from your shirk (associating partners with Allah). He asks his Lord for safety from their evil, fearing them of Allah, and recites the words of Allah, “Ajuzu bi thalathin” three times in the morning and evening, and also at bedtime, if Allah wills, it is sufficient, if Allah wills.

The questioner:
He says, "Every time you enter." He says, "Shaykh, every time I enter this house, I see it in its state, but he says that after entering, the fire is lit. What is the situation?"

The Shaykh:
Accept it as a phenomenon that incites them to this, because they are from its quarter, as if it is from the shayatin (devils) of the jinn.

The questioner:
Yes, and it exists from outside, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
All of this involves seeking refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created, asking his Lord for safety from their evil, and warning them, saying: “Fear Allah, be mindful of Allah, watch out for Allah, and deliver us from your shirk (associating partners with Allah).” He recites the three surahs, the words of Allah, al-Mu’minun and al-Maghfirah, three times, and recites Ayat al-Kursi (the Verse of the Throne). All of these are among the means of safety.

The questioner:
Reciting Surat al-Baqarah.

The Shaykh:
We do not read it all; there is no harm. We read it, yes, all of it.

The questioner:
This house has come out better.

The Shaykh:
It is all good, it is all good.
