    Story of the Bewitchment of the Prophet (Peace be upon h im)

    Story of the Bewitchment of the Prophet (Peace be upon him)

    Surah Al-Falaq and surah An-Naas were revealed when the Prophet (Peace be upon him) was afflicted with black magic.
    These two surahs should be recited for the cure of magic, evil eye and all sorts of illnesses and to stay protected.

    In the Book of Medicine of his Sahih, Al-Bukhari recorded that `A’ishah (Radi Allahu anha) said, “The Messenger of Allah (Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam) was bewitched until he thought that he had relations with his wives, but he had not had relations with them.” Sufyan said, “This is the worst form of magic when it reaches this stage.”

    So the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said,

    (O `A’ishah! Do you know that Allah has answered me concerning that which I asked Him. Two men came to me and one of them sat by my head while the other sat by my feet. The one who was sitting by my head said to the other one, `What is wrong with this man’ The other replied, `He is bewitched.’ The first one said, `Who bewitched him’ The other replied, `Labid bin A`sam. He is a man from the tribe of Banu Zurayq who is an ally of the Jews, and a hypocrite.’ The first one asked, `With what (did he bewitch him)’ The other replied, `With a comb and hair from the comb.’ The first one asked, `Where (is the comb)’ The other answered, `In the dried bark of a male date palm under a rock in a well called Dharwan.’) `

    A’ishah (Radi Allahu anha) said, “So he went to the well to remove it (the comb with the hair). Then he (Peace be upon him) said,

    (This is the well that I saw. It was as if its water had henna soaked in it and its palm trees were like the heads of devils.) So he removed it (of the well). Then I (`A’ishah Radi Allahu anha) said, `Will you not make this public’ He (Peace be upon him)replied,

    (Allah has cured me and I hate to spread (the news of) wickedness to any of the people.)”

    May Allah save us all from the evil of black magic,ameen

  • Story of Abu Lahab’s wife Umm Jamil

    Story of Abu Lahab’s wife Umm Jamil

    The story of Abu Lahab’s wife Umm Jamil (Abu Lahab was the uncle of Prophet Mohammad Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam)

    Chapter 111, Surah Lahab,verses 1-5

    ”May the hands of Abu Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.His wealth will not avail him or that which he gained.He will [enter to] burn in a Fire of [blazing] flame.And his wife [as well] – the carrier of firewood.Around her neck is a rope of [twisted] fiber”

    The Destiny of Umm Jamil, the Wife of Abu Lahab:

    (And his wife too, who carries wood.) His wife was among the leading women of the Quraysh and she was known as Umm Jamil. Her name was `Arwah bint Harb bin Umayyah and she was the sister of Abu Sufyan. She was supportive of her husband in his disbelief, rejection and obstinacy. Therefore, she will be helping to administer his punishment in the fire of Hell on the Day of Judgement.

    Thus, Allah says,

    (Who carries wood. In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad.) meaning, she will carry the firewood and throw it upon her husband to increase that which he is in (of torment), and she will be ready and prepared to do so.

    (In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad.) Mujahid and `Urwah both said, “From the palm fiber of the Fire.”

    Al-`Awfi narrated from Ibn `Abbas that she used to place thorns in the path of the Messenger of Allah(Peace be upon him) . Al-Jawhari said, “Al-Masad refers to fibers, it is also a rope made from fibers or palm leaves. It is also made from the skins of camels or their furs.

    Mujahid said,

    (In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad.) “This means a collar of iron.” Don’t you see that the Arabs call a pulley cable a Masad

    A Story of Abu Lahab’s Wife harming the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him):

    Asma Radi Allahu anha bint Abi Bakr said, “When

    (Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab and perish he)!) was revealed, the one-eyed Umm Jamil bint Harb came out wailing, and she had a stone in her hand. She was saying, `He criticizes our father, and his religion is our scorn, and his command is to disobey us.’ The Messenger of Allah was sitting in the Masjid (of the Ka`bah) and Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu was with him. When Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu saw her he said, `O Messenger of Allah! She is coming and I fear that she will see you.’ The Messenger of Allah replied,

    (Verily, she will not see me.) Then he recited some of the Qur’an as a protection for himself. This is as Allah says,

    (And when you recite the Qur’an, We put between you and those who believe not in the Hereafter, an invisible veil.) (17:45)

    So she advanced until she was standing in front of Abu Bakr Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu and she did not see the Messenger of Allah . She then said, `O Abu Bakr! Verily, I have been informed that your friend is making defamatory poetry about me.’

    Abu Bakr Radi Allahu anhu replied, `Nay! By the Lord of this House (the Ka`bah) he is not defaming you.’ So she turned away saying, `Indeed the Quraysh know that I am the daughter of their leader.”’ Al-Walid or another person said in a different version of this Hadith,

    “So Umm Jamil stumbled over her waist gown while she was making circuits (Tawaf) around the House (the Ka`bah) and she said, `Cursed be the reviler.’

     

     

  • The Story of Asiyah Alaihissalaam and her dua

    The Story of Asiyah Alaihissalaam and her dua

    Story of Asiyah Alaihissalaam and her dua:

    Surah At-Tahreem ,verse 11

    ”And Allah presents an example of those who believed: the wife of Pharaoh, when she said, “My Lord, build for me near You a house in Paradise and save me from Pharaoh and his deeds and save me from the wrongdoing people.”

    Asiya (Peace and blessings be upon her) was the wife of Fir`awn.

    Qatadah said, “Fir`awn was the most tyrannical among the people of the earth and the most disbelieving. By Allah! His wife was not affected by her husband’s disbelief, because she obeyed her Lord. Therefore, let it be known that Allah is the Just Judge Who will not punish anyone except for their own sins.”

    Ibn Jarir recorded that Sulayman said, “The wife of Fir`awn was tortured under the sun and when Fir`awn would finish the torture session, the angels would shade her with their wings. She was shown her house in Paradise.”

    Ibn Jarir said that Al-Qasim bin Abi Bazzah said, “Fir`awn’s wife used to ask, `Who prevailed’ When she was told, `Musa and Harun prevailed’, she said, `I believe in the Lord of Musa and Harun.’

    Fir`awn sent his aides to her and said to them, `Find the biggest stone. If she insists on keeping her faith, throw the stone on her, otherwise she is my wife. When they came to her, she looked up to the sky and was able to see her house in Paradise. She persisted on the faith and her soul was then captured. The stone was thrown on her lifeless body.”

    This is the meaning of her statement,

    (My Lord! Build for me a home with You in Paradise, and save me from Fir`awn and his work,) means, `deliver me from him, because I am innocent of his actions,’

    (and save me from the people who are wrongdoers.)

    Her full name was Asiyah bint Muzahim, may Allah be pleased with her.She is one of the women of Paradise.

    Ibn `Abbas said, “The Messenger of Allah drew four lines on the ground and said,

    (Do you know what these lines represent) They said, `Allah and His Messenger know best.’ He said,

    (The best among the women of Paradise are Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, Fatimah bint Muhammad, Maryam bint `Imran and Asiyah bint Muzahim, wife of Fir`awn.)

    It is confirmed in the Two Sahihs from Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari that the Messenger of Allah said,
    (Many men have reached the level of perfection, but none among women have reached this level except Asiyah — Fir`awn’s wife, Maryam–the daughter of `Imran, and Khadijah–the daughter of Khuwaylid. And no doubt, the superiority of `A’ishah to other women is like the superiority of Tharid to other meals.)

  • The story of Abu Lahab

    The story of Abu Lahab

    The story of Abu Lahab (He was the uncle of Prophet Mohammad Sallal laahoo alaihi wassallam)

    Chapter 111, Surah Lahab, verses 1-3

    ”May the hands of Abu Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.His wealth will not avail him or that which he gained.He will [enter to] burn in a Fire of [blazing] flame”

    The Reason for the Revelation of this Surah and the Arrogance of Abu Lahab towards the Messenger (Peace be upon him) is mentioned below.

    Al-Bukhari recorded from Ibn `Abbas that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) went out to the valley of Al-Batha and he ascended the mountain. Then he cried out,
    (O people, come at once!) So the Quraysh gathered around him. Then he said,

    (If I told you all that the enemy was going to attack you in the morning, or in the evening, would you all believe me) They replied, “Yes.” Then he (Peace be upon him) said,

    (Verily, I am a warner (sent) to you all before the coming of a severe torment.) 
    Then Abu Lahab said, “Have you gathered us for this May you perish!” Thus, Allah revealed,

    (Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab and perish he!) to the end of the Surah.

    In another narration it states that he stood up dusting of his hands and said, “Perish you for the rest of this day! Have you gathered us for this” Then Allah revealed,

    (Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab and perish he!) The first part is a supplication against him and the second is information about him.

    This man Abu Lahab was one of the uncles of the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him).His name was `Abdul-`Uzza bin Abdul-Muttalib. His surname was Abu `Utaybah and he was only called Abu Lahab because of the brightness of his face. He used to often cause harm to the Messenger of Allah . He hated and scorned him and his religion.

    Imam Ahmad recorded from Abu Az-Zinad that a man called Rabi`ah bin `Abbad from the tribe of Bani Ad-Dil, who was a man of pre-Islamic ignorance who accepted Islam, said to him, “I saw the Prophet (Peace be upon him) in the time of pre-Islamic ignorance in the market of Dhul-Majaz and he was saying,

    (O people! Say there is no god worthy of worship except Allah and you will be successful.) The people were gathered around him and behind him there was a man with a bright face, squint (or cross) eyes and two braids in his hair. He was saying, “Verily, he is an apostate (from our religion) and a liar!” This man was following him (the Prophet(Peace be upon him ) around wherever he went. So, I asked who was he and they (the people) said, “This is his uncle, Abu Lahab.”

    Concerning Allah’s statement,

    (His wealth and his children (Kasab) will not benefit him!) Ibn `Abbas and others have said,

    (and his children (Kasab) will not benefit him!) “Kasab means his children.”

    It has been mentioned from Ibn Mas`ud that when the Messenger of Allah called his people to faith, Abu Lahab said, “Even if what my nephew says is true, I will ransom myself (i.e., save myself) from the painful torment on the Day of Judgement with my wealth and my children.” Thus, Allah revealed,

    (His wealth and his children will not benefit him!) Then Allah says,

    (He will enter a Fire full of flames!) meaning, it has flames, evil and severe burning

    Ayat-ul-Kursi (The Greatest Ayah in the Holy Quran)

    Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.  

    اللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ لَّهُ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ‌ٰتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۗ مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ‌ٰتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۖ وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ

    Whoever recites this in the morning, will have the reward of freeing a slave from the Children of Isma’il. Ten Hasanaat (rewards) will be written for him, and he will be forgiven ten misdeeds, raised up ten degrees, and be protected from Satan until evening. Whoever says it in the evening will have the same reward until morning.

    Abu Dawud 4/319, 3/957, Ahmad 4/ 60, Ibn Majah

     

    ”O Allah, by You we enter the morning and by You we enter the evening, 1 by You we live and by You we die, and to You is the Final Return”

    اللَّهُمَّ بِكَ أَصْبَحْنَا، وَبِكَ أَمْسَيْنَا، وَبِكَ نَحْيَا، وَبِكَ نَمُوتُ وَإِلَيْكَ النُّشُورُ

    Allaahumma bika ‘asbahnaa, wa bika ‘amsaynaa, wa bika nahyaa, wa bika namootu wa ‘ilaykan-nushoor

    When you say this in the evening you should say: Allaahumma bika ‘amsaynaa wa bika ‘asbahnaa, wa bika nahyaa, wa bika namoot, wa ‘ilaykal-maseer : “O Allah, You bring us the end of the day as You bring us its beginning, You bring us life and you bring us death, and to You is our fate.”

    Sahih At-Tirmidhi 3/142.

    “Allah has promised that anyone who says this three times every morning or evening will be pleased on the Day of Resurrection.”

    “I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion and with Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as my Prophet.”

    (Recite three times in Arabic).

    رَضِيتُ باللهِ رَبَّاً، وَبِالْإِسْلَامِ دِيناً، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَى اللهُ عَلِيهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَبِيَّاً

    Radheetu billaahi Rabban, wa bil-‘Islaami deenan, wa bi-Muhammadin (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallama) Nabiyyan.

    “O Allah, I ask You for KNOWLEDGE that is of benefit, a good PROVISION, and DEEDS that will be accepted”

    اللَّهُمَّ إنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْماً نَافِعاً، وَرِزقاً طَيِّباً، وَعَمَلاً مُتَقَبَّلاً

    Allaahumma ‘innee ‘as’aluka ‘ilman naafi’an, wa rizqan tayyiban, wa ‘amalan mutaqabbalan.

    Recite 3 times upon waking up in the morning.

    Ayat-ul-Kursi (The Greatest Ayah in the Holy Quran)

    Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.  

    اللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ لَّهُ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ‌ٰتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۗ مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ‌ٰتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۖ وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ

     

    Allaahu laa ‘ilaaha ‘illaa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyoom, laa ta’khuthuhu sinatun wa laa nawm, lahu maa fis-samaawaati wa maa fil-‘ardh, man thal-lathee yashfa’u ‘indahu ‘illaa bi’ithnih, ya’lamu maa bayna ‘aydeehim wa maa khalfahum, wa laa yuheetoona bishay’im-min ‘ilmihi ‘illaa bimaa shaa’a, wasi’a kursiyyuhus-samaawaati wal’ardh, wa laa ya’ooduhu hifdhuhumaa, wa Huwal- ‘Aliyyul- ‘Adheem.

    Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 255

     

    Whoever says this when he rises in the morning will be protected from jinns until he retires in the evening, and whoever says it when retiring in the evening will be protected from them until he rises in the morning.
