There has been a lot of hustle bustle lately due to elections. I happened to visit my village, there while meeting many of my old childhood folks, a young man with a very disturbed facial came to me and whispered “Uncle, I need to discuss something very serious with you, please allow me to visit you in the evening”. I looked into his eyes and sensed the presence of jinns with him. Anyways I told him to come over after Isha prayer. As I I was visiting my village after such a long time, I was having so much fun in seeing my friends, having those traditional foods, smelling the familiar aroma of soil, sounds of hookah, those joined meetings under the shades of thick trees. Everything was so overwhelming; I couldn’t find any depression there.
Anyways, my entire day was spent in meeting with my old buddies and then from Maghrib to Isha, I stayed in the Mosque. It was all quite out there after Isha. Mosque was in main market. I remember it was never quite like this before. I asked my fellows and they informed me that people are watching election results on television. And I prayed to Allah, all mighty to bless us with the best leader.
Lost in my thoughts about elections, I reached home and spotted that young man outside my door. I made him sit in my drawing room, offered him refreshment and then asked him regarding his problem. He told me that he was taken by a jinn, that jinn lives with him for 24 hours. He could not attend any gatherings, be it a wedding or a funeral and if he attends any, he starts feeling sick. The jinn start to talk inside him, he has ruined his life. The young man even showed me his bruises and black spots on his body. The jinn used to prick him with needles as well. “The more I go for the treatments, the more he hurts me”, the man said crying. Further he said his body was in pain, he feels fire, burning inside, the jinn plays with him. Young man was crying so badly, I tried to relax him, offered him a glass of water, now he was quiet. I told him few practices that Sheikh_ul_Wazaif has told us and a few things to avoid. He was now relaxed after listening to my instructions carefully and left with best wishes.
I kept thinking that ever since we have stopped offering the Masnoon practices (practices according to Sunnah) we have become more prone to this naughty creature known as jinn. We can avoid many problems by just following Sunnah and by Masnoon practices.
