Question:
Approximately a year and a half ago, we purchased our
current residence. Following initial days of peace, illness struck every member
of our household. It began with severe deterioration in our mother’s health,
progressing until virtually everyone fell chronically ill. One evening, while
the family was away attending a sacred gathering (Mīlād Sharīf), an
incident occurred that shattered our composure.
At the time, our young domestic assistant was walking
across the lounge carpet when an upright object pierced his foot; peeling back
the carpet, we discovered an ordinary ballpoint pen bent into a sharp
"V" shape and forced into the fibers. While still bewildered, the
assistant spotted a gleaming sewing needle standing upright within the master
bedroom, its sharp point oriented upward and its eye buried into the carpet.
This needle was likewise bent into a "V" shape.
A thorough search unearthed a total of seventy-five
similarly bent needles embedded across the carpets, a sight that caused our
hair to stand on end. Needles continued surfacing until noon the following day.
When our mother returned and witnessed the scene, she broke down weeping; our
father, who had never believed in occult phenomena, was deeply unnerved. Ever
since that day, our commerce has steadily disintegrated, straightforward
efforts yield ruinous outcomes, our domestic atmosphere is toxic, and no one
enjoys health. Prescribe a remedy.
Answer:
Take a skein of blue thread and measure eleven strands
equal to your mother’s total height, from the crown of her head to the tip of
her big toe. Fold these eleven strands fourfold into a single cord, and tie a
loose knot at one end. Recite Surah Al-Falaq in its entirety once, blow into
the knot, and pull it firmly tight.
Burn this knotted cord over fire. As it burns, it will
emit a sharp, acrid stench (charānd); repeat this burning ritual daily
until the foul burning odor ceases entirely to manifest.
For five consecutive Thursdays, feed an impoverished
person between the Maghrib and Isha prayers. Furthermore, ensure that meat,
eggs, and fermented foods are entirely excluded from your household cooking for
a period of five weeks.
