Protection

Salam

In the commentary of the Wird al-Latif/ Ratib al-Haddad (written by an Indian scholar) it is mentioned that the recitation of the Ayat al-Kursi and the three Quls after each prayer are known to be a proven protection against majic/jinns. Sh Fadl bin Habib Mawl al-Dawailah said (p.10):

.
“Ibn Hajar said in his ‘Sharh al-Mishkat’:
There is nothing more thorough in the removal of magic and not being affected by it than the regular recitation of them. Not least after the prayer, as has been experienced.”
.

Note:The hadith which mention that the above should be recited after the prayer are the following:
.

**Abu Umamah (ra) said: The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said: ‘Whoever recites Ayah al-Kursi after every obligatory prayer, will not be prevented from entering paradise except by death’. Reported by al-Nasai (9928) in al-Kubra

**Uqbah bin Amir said: The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) ordered me to recite the muawadhatayn after every prayer. Abu Dawud’s version mentions Muawadhat. Therefore:

{قل هو الله أحد}, {قل أعوذ برب الفلق} and {قل أعوذ برب الناس} should be recited.

Reported by Abu Dawud (1532), al-Tirmidhi (2905), al-Nasai (3/68).

ps: This Indian Ba Alawi Sheikh was born in Malibar around 1240 (hijri), may Allah (the most High) give us tawfiq to write more about him and from him in the future. The least we can do from this post is to try to recite the above verses of the Quran after our prayers Inshallah.
