The question

Do the symptoms mentioned in the question indicate affliction with a loving jinn (Mass Al-Ashiq), the evil eye (Ayn), and sorcery (Sihr)? Can one recover from these without a raqi (exorcist)? What should one do when ruqyah (exorcism/incantation) is recited? And can a person be afflicted by more than one jinn?

The answer

Your symptoms may be a sign of being afflicted by the evil eye or jinn possession. Therefore, you should continue with (Islamic exorcism). Someone else can perform ruqyah on you, provided that modesty and are maintained, and there is no seclusion. You can perform ruqyah on yourself by blowing into your hands and wiping [your body], or into water for drinking and bathing. Allah is capable of nullifying magic and jinn possession by any means. Strive in performing ruqyah and adhkar (remembrances of Allah), and do not pay attention to the jinn’s words or their intimidation, and remember that the plot of Satan is weak. Do not pay attention to the obsessions of the (lover jinn) or your soul leaving your body, and seek refuge with Allah from the whispers of the devils. Suicide is intentionally killing oneself, and the death of a patient during ruqyah may be a sign of good. Fortify yourself with acts of obedience, such as maintaining the obligatory prayers and morning and evening adhkar. Supplication is the weapon of the believer, and continue with it while having a good opinion of Allah, for the treasures of Allah are inexhaustible. We advise you to wear the hijab and cover your face to protect yourself from the evil eye of those who cast it and the envious, and if you fear the evil eye, seek refuge with Allah.
