I take refuge with the generous face of Allah; and with His words,
which no pious or impious can pass; from the evil of what descendsfrom
the heaven and ascends to it; from the evil of what enters into the
earth and what comes out of it; from the evil of the troubles of
thenight and the day, and from the evil of the knockers at the night
andday, except the knocker who brings good.
(The Prophet's Prayer in Biharul-Anwar - Volume 91, Page 215)
Allamah Huwaizi (AR) quotes a tradition by Ali bin Ibrahim in Kafi
with the ultimate narrator being Imam Ja'far Sadiq (AS) who said:
A man complained that the people of the soil indulge in frivolities
withhis relatives, so he asked, what is the height of your roof? He
said, ten lengths. Then he said, Its height should be 8 lengths. Now,
between 8 and 10 lengths write AyatKursi, and as you know inany house
where the height is more than 8 lengths the Jinns come tolive there.
Ali bin Ibrahim has quoted his father who has quoted Abu Abdullah to say:
If the height of the roof of the house is eight lengths, then it is a
place worth living in. However,if it is more than eight lengths then
write Ayat Kursi in the space above.
Besides the Verse of The Throne, it is a common practice for all
Muslims tokeep amulets under the pillows of their children, or recite
the four QULS (Chapters al- Ikhlas, al-Kafirun, al-Naas, and al-Falaq
from Qur'an) for protection. Muslims also keep protective amulets
(amulet of Umm al-Subyan , being one of them) under the pillow of
their newborn child toavoid Shaytan from harming the baby. We have
also noted in previous sections that these Qur'anic verses are living,
conscious and aware of the surroundings and can affect a person at the
energy and physiological level.
And We sent down the Qur'an, which is a healing and mercy unto the believers.
(al-Qur'an - Chapter 17, Verse 82)
Apparently, the reason for this is to keep these infants safe from the
evil eye and detrimental info-energy emancipatedfrom the evil spirits
and from different people they encounter each day.It is a fact that
there are people who can affect their victims by merely looking or
thinking about them, and without any physical contact, because of
their high level of ill nature and unstable energy fields they carry
(Weston, 1998). Shamanic healers firmly believe in such kinds of evil
eye and always try to get rid of the source of energy thatis blocking
ones energy centers.
The evil eye is a fact and one can compare it to thelethal energy
released by some snakes when they look at their prey and thevictim
instantly freezes and sometimes immediately dies of a heart attack.
(al-Akili, 1993)
As Allah (SWT) says in Qur'an:
The unbelievers would almost trip you up with their eyes when they
hear the message.
(al-Qur'an - Chapter 68, Verse 51)
Say, I seek refuge in the Lord of the dawn from the evil of His
creation; from any evil darkness may conceal; from the evil of those
who practice secret arts; and from the evil of an envious one when he
exhibits envy.
(al-Qur'an - Chapter 113)
As we have observed, corrupt and tainted information within the energy
and lowcharge energy has the ability to weaken any vulnerable person's
energy system thereby causing malfunction in the fields, blockage, and
even illness. This is the reason why the Prophet (S) always advised
his followers to keep themselves safe from the evil eye by reciting
invocations, chapters from Qur'an, performing ablutions and even
keeping amulets (with Qur'anic verses) around one's arm/ shoulder.
These kinds of text and recitations do increase the rate of vibration
in ones energy fields keeping them protected from low vibrations and
unfavorable energy, as well as adulterated info-energy.
Apparently, al-Majlisi (1627) reports that Allah presented to the
Prophet (S) a shirt when he was born (physical birth), andwas informed
that that shirt was going to be his protection from the calamities of
the world.
When angry or upset, or even when an evil eye inflicts a person, the
recommendation is to perform ablution. This act of applying water on
oneself has also been recommended by Weston(1998) and will not only
mean ceremonial cleanliness for the individual, but also a cure
because the water will balance and ground the faults (energy blockage
resulting in restricted flow). The act will also introduce and replace
most of the existing info-energy withthe pure and unadulterated
infoenergy of water. Thisis evidence in itself that the Prophet (S)
himself believed in energy and its interactions, and he has taught us
ways to avoid its adulteration.
When a person is involved in a fight or intense argument, the Prophet
(S) has further specifically recommended one of thepersons to perform
ablution, bathing and spraying the other individual with the waterfrom
the ablution. This way, both individuals willhave balanced their
info-energy system with a pure and untainted one, and increasing their
energy's flow and rate of vibration. In brief, anger,an emotion that
introduces lower vibrations of energy and unfavorable info-energy will
be replaced with higher vibrations of the same.
The significance of treating oneself from skin disorders, health
challenges, and even a poisonous bite with invocations, and reciting
chapters from Qur'an (in particular, the two guardian chapters -
al-Maudhatayn), take an entire new meaning. These acts are as
effective methods suggested and practiced by the Prophet (S) centuries
ago. Even Muslim mothers place their hands on the site of pain the
child is experiencing, recite a few couplets or some verses from
Qur'an, and permit the favorable energy alterations in thatchild,
reducing or even eliminating the discomfort.
Shaykh al-Mufid writes inal-Amali, Abul Qasim Ja'far, son of Muhammad
(AR), reported to me fromhis father, from Sa'd, son of Abdillah, from
Ahmad, son of Muhammad, son ofIsa, from al-Husain, son ofSaeed, from
Muhammad, son of Abi Umayr, from Muhammad al-Ja'fi, from his father
who said, I always complained aboutmy eyes. Once I complained about it
to Abu Abdillah (AS), he said, May I teach you a prayer,beneficial for
your life here and hereafter? And, which treats the pain in your eye?
I said, Yes. He said:
Say after morning and Maghrib prayers:
O Allah, I beseech You in the name of Muhammad nd his progeny; to
bless Muhammad and his progeny; and to bestow light upon my eyes and
insight upon my faith, certitude upon my heart, sincerity upon my
acts, security upon my self, abundance upon my subsistence; and grant
me to be ever thankful toYou as long as You keep me. And, may Allah
bless our master Muhammad and his progeny.
We have already shown and will show in details in later sections the
importance of praying onbehalf of the Aimmah (AS) and that the act of
just plain prayer and invocation has the abilityto replace and
transform one's energy system into a more favorable one, creating a
healing process.
al-Sadiq (AS) has further said that, Whosoever recites the chapter of
al-Zilzal (from al-Qur'an) in his optional prayers will never be
involved in an earthquake and he will not die by it. Such remarkable
statements ofhealth care have been mentioned hundreds of times by the
Infallible linking Qur'an recitation to good health and protection
from natural and evil forces of nature and unhealthiness.
Imam al-Sadiq (AS) says:
If one attends to what God likes, God will attendto what he likes. If
one asks refuge in God and piety, then God will protect him. Moreover,
if Allah attends to a person,and He protects that person, he should
not fear even if the sky falls on the earth, or a disaster comes and
affects everything on the earth. The person will be safe from any
disaster since God protects him via his piety. Is it not so? God the
Almighty said:
As to the righteous (they will be), in a position of security.
(al-Qur'an - Chapter 44, Verse 51)
Now we have the opportunity to understand that not only the recitation
of verses from the Book of Allah can introduce highly charged energy,
but also enclose one with protective, favorable info-energy that will
notify the earth to not hurt him whenever it quakes. History has
recorded such incidents and these will be explored in details later -
between humans and objects, and between objects. For instance, the
floods avoid drowning mosques and the Ka'bah in water, thus causing
nodamage. Water, also surrounding the grave ofal-Abbas (son of Imam
al-Husain (AS) and not drowning the sacred body. This clearly explains
an intelligent relationship between theenergy of water and the energy
of the Ka'bah, or the energy of the personsand energy of the hurricane
or any weatheremergency. The consciousness of water is a reality.
We have noted earlier that the earth (and the entire creation) is
intelligent and communicates in this manner. Gemstones, holy water,
shrines, and so forth can also be curativein this manner. Clearly,
these objects store not only higher vibrations of energy, but also
store powerful, unadulterated memories of healing information that can
replace the existing unfavorable info-energy of the individual as a
result of an evil eye, evil spirits, or even sickness.
Moreover, by correcting the faults in the energy fields and the
info-energy within your system, you would drive away the evil and
harmful, corrupt info-energy produced from the lethal venom, for
example. The increased vibrations and free flowing energy produced by
recitation ofchapters from Qur'an willreduce or eliminate the effects
of low vibrations caused by the bite and pain, thus alleviating the
suffering. We have shown that reciting, and writing verses from Qur'an
(with saffron, soaked) produces highly charged energy that can affect
a person physiologically, only because the verses of Qur'an are
vibrating, alive and conscious.
The power of such kinds of meditation and prayerin reversing the
effects oflowcharge and tainted energy caused by injury or an evil eye
has been confirmed by the Prophet(S) and explained in full by al-Akili
(1993) in the book which he translatedfrom Arabic - Natural Healing
with the Medicine of the Prophet (S). The Prophet (S), manytimes, used
his saliva to get rid of pain and discomfort in many people and such
incidents are present in history.
At the siege of Khaybar, Ali's eyes were so inflamed that he could not
open them, and the pain was extreme. The Prophet put some of his
saliva on them and this healed the eyes of Ali immediately. Ali,
according to some traditions received forty wounds at the battle of
Uhud. The Prophet's saliva cured him and removed traces of all the
wounds. The Prophet once cured a man from leprosy with his blessed
saliva. In a certain battle a man who had his foot cut off was healed
by Muhammad's casting his blessed saliva on the stump, to which he
re-united in a perfect manner, the amputated leg. al-Majlisi (1627)
writes that during the battle of Khaybar a man received a desperate
wound, which the Prophet healed by breathing on it three times.
Fortunately, we find suchpractice today is surgery units and recovery
rooms, where patients recover and heal their wounds much faster
thanthe normal rate, in particular when these patients were exposed
tohealing and steady energy from healing touch practitioners. The
Prophet (S) employed a similar procedure to curea scorpion's sting and
other poisonous bites. Further, he even treated eczema, boils, cuts,
general pain, malaise, and fever with prayer (al-Akili, 1993).
al-Sadiq (AS) has said:
Treat your ailments with charity, and repel varieties of affliction by
invocation.
