Protection from the Negative Energies of Humans and Jinn
-
Surah Sad
And remember Our servant Job! When he cried out to his Lord: "Shaytan has afflicted me with weariness and torment." (41)
"Strike the ground with your foot! Here is a place to wash, and a cool drink!..." We said. (42)
We restored his family to him and the like of them with them, as a mercy from Us and a reminder for those of sound mind. (43)
Shaytans (devils) from among jinn or humans can cause distress to some people. Indeed, jinn, just like humans, are material beings (they were created from fire) and therefore, it is quite natural for them to cause physical harm to other living beings.
Surah Al-Hijr And We had created the jinn/Iblis before from scorching fire. (27)
With the whisperings (waswasa) they give, as well as their telepathic effects and negative energies, they can adversely affect your life energy and even lead to depression in the long run. To protect oneself from their negative energies, performing beautiful acts such as performing prayer (salat), praying (making du'a) (only to Allah), reading the Quran, constantly remembering and giving thanks to Allah, and competing in goodness and charitable deeds holds an important place. Indeed, this world and the hereafter are a whole; worship and good deeds beautify not only the hereafter but also this world of ours...
Surah An-Nas
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful...
Say: "I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind! (1)
The King (or Ruler, Director) of mankind, (2)
The God (Ilah) of mankind; (3)
From the evil of the slinking, hiding whisperer / that sneaky, deceptive shaytan, (4)
Who whispers doubts and anxieties into the breasts of mankind; (5)
Be he from among the jinn or mankind!" (6)
Surah Fussilat
And if an evil suggestion from Shaytan provokes you, then seek refuge in Allah! Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing... (36)
Surah Al-A'raf
Indeed, those who are mindful of Allah (muttaqun), when a vision/impulse from Shaytan touches them, they immediately remember (Allah). And at that moment, they see (what needs to be seen). (201)
Besides this, as we see in the story of Prophet Job (Eyyub), our Lord gives him water as a natural remedy to relieve his distress and asks him to both drink it and wash with it. Perhaps this was a special healing water, but we can conclude that water, in general, is beneficial for this problem.
In this context, perhaps some other foods can also help in getting rid of the negative effects of some humans and jinn who spread negative energy. Especially foods that protect our body from radiation and medicinal plants (herbs) can be effective. Because a food that expels radiation from the body may also cleanse negative energy.
Consuming foods like carob (locust bean) and yogurt may play a role in protecting against negative energies and alleviating some problems that arise in the body. Furthermore, Korean Ginseng, considered one of the most effective radiation-cleansing plants in the world, should also be kept in mind. Ginseng from the Far East is also an elixir of youth that brings general health and balance, from our minds to our skin. As it increases our resistance, it also makes us strong against negative external influences. Especially against stress...
One of the noteworthy points in this story (qissa) is that our Lord, unlike in some other examples, does not remove the distress directly, but this time offers the solution (the water). Thus, thanks to the verses that convey this event to us, all of humanity is also guided on the subject.
Making du'a (praying) and seeking refuge in Allah are not things that contradict receiving physical treatment. Or asking for help from our Lord on any other matter and working to accomplish that task as best we can, producing solutions... Everything (including our own actions) is a means (wasilah), a part of the divine plan. We must always work and strive with all our might to solve problems. Moreover, if we always walk on the path of goodness and faith, our Lord already begins to let us experience paradise-like beauties even in this world.
Peace and regards
