Black Magic

Hi SargeCandy,

I’m not trying to invalidate your belief that you were the victim of black magic. Because I do believe that black magic exists. But I wanted to discuss the phenomenon of **“sleep paralysis” **with you. Are you familiar with it?

Many people have experienced sleep paralysis similar to as you have described. Sleeping has stages…one of them is the REM (rapid eye movement) stage during which your body is sort of paralyzed but your mind is still somewhat alert. During sleep paralysis…people tend to see nightmares that feel very realistic. They might dream that they are being chased by some evil being. Or they might feel a sensation as though they are being crushed by the weight of some malevolent force. Some people complain they feel as though somebody is sitting on their chest.

The nightmare from sleep paralysis seems to last forever…but in reality it is usually a few seconds or minutes. During the nightmare…your brain is alert and tells you “Wake up…you’re having a nightmare, open your eyes, and get up from the bed”…but you’re body is temporarily paralyzed. And you’re unable to open your eyes or move your body. Several studies show that many people will experience sleep paralysis at least once or twice in their life.

This phenomenon is known by different names in various cultures. In some cultures it is known as the devil, witch, jinn, goblin, demon, hag that sits on your chest or comes to attack you in your sleep.

Here’s some more interesting information. In Islam…there is a jinn known as Jathoum or Al-Khaaniq (the strangler)…or Al-Naydalaan who causes this feeling of being pressured with weight or strangled during your sleep. The sensation of being strangled/crushed is called Al-kaboos.

Recite the Ayatul Kursi and the 3 Kuls prior to going to sleep.

redvelvet,

I know about sleep paralysis,but i have also mentioned i have heard sounds that disturb me when i try to sleep.I also have a huge headache in my head after maghrib.sometimes when im in ablution,i have to forcefully get up for prayers and during praying my headache increases.My level of anxiety has increased and i find it hard to sleep alone as i remain disturbed and keep waking up during night.Now i have mentioned in my post mostly what i have seen during disturbed sleep.While I have been up,i have heard foot steps also in my room,knocking on my cupboards,i have heard someone breathing many times while i try to sleep.This sometimes scares me and sometimes makes me more angry.The irony is that,I am forced to do good things that were part of my nature and i previously used to do easily as second habits.

This prompted me to go to a person(i can give his name/contact if u want)and he is a doctor and an amil,he checked me and confirmed its black magic.Now he is treating me and im feeling much better.I had asked him which kind of black magic has been done on me,he says its done through jinns and its not sifli.then he recommended me cures(i can describe if someone is interested).

As for sleep paralysis thing,I am sure thats not the thing,coz i sleep peacefully when i dont sleep alone.and it may sound really stupid,but sometimes i get to know whats gonna happen next with me or someone around me and it happens,sorry im not bragging here.
