Answer:
Wa alaikum as-salaam! Bismillahirahmaniraheem, wa salaatu was salaamu ala Rasulana’l kareem.
After this, and asking destoor and medad from Maulana Shaykh, I am reminding myself and you that Quran admonishes the believers not to pursue things of which we have no knowledge.
Surah Baqaraa, ayat 102 says that magic and such things cannot harm anyone without Allah’s permission. Many ayats say that what happens to us from evil is our own fault. We are not saying “astagfirLlah” and trying to correct ourselves but looking to blame others for our misfortunes.
Say “astagfirLlah” 1000 times and leave these strange matters. There is a hadith qudsi collected by ibn al-Arabi (Allah ta’ala bless him) wherein Musa alayhi as-salaam asks Allah ta’ala, “O my Lord! When, or with which thing, are you pleased with us?”
“O Musa”, replied the Lord, “When My servant is busy with his own affairs, I am pleased with him!”
In other words, when we mind our own business!
Shukran, thank you for your question. Pray for us. As-salaamualaikum.
