Causes of Being Afflicted by Possession and Tightness in the Chest
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says in this question: Some people suffer from possession, or tightness in the chest, or sorcery. What are the causes, O Shaykh, and what is the cure? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The causes are generally heedlessness of Allah and neglecting the acts of obedience and the prescribed daily recitations. As for the one who uses the prescribed recitations and the prescribed seekings of refuge, and is upright in the obedience of Allah, the general rule is that he is safe from these matters, and the devils have no power over him. But with sins and heedlessness of Allah, one may be afflicted with something of the devils' matters and whispers.
And the cure is: seeking refuge in Allah from Satan, striving in the obedience of Allah, asking Him for well-being, and increasing in seeking refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan, even in prayer. If whispers occur, he should spit to his left three times and say: “I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan” three times, and the harm will be removed.
The intended meaning : That the cure for whispers is seeking refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan, striving in the obedience of Allah and His Messenger, and increasing in the recitation of the Qur'an. All of this is among the causes of well-being. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
