the others
something creepy is going on in the apartment and there is no logical explanation. the topic of jinns always comes up in discussion with my roommates. we’re all very much intrigued by them and explain any weird circumstances by them. so listen to this...cow always leaves her laptop on the bottom shelf of the china cabinet ‘cause she can’t really reach the top shelf of the cabinet. the other day, she was looking for her laptop. it wasn’t where she thought she put it...ie. the bottom shelf of the cabinet or even on the dining room table. she found the laptop on the top shelf...right hand corner. i didn’t move her laptop nor did naveed. and nadiya was away for a few days so she couldn’t have moved it either. cow thought perhaps she put it there and forgot about it even though the chances of that happening were next to zilch. whatever. we didn’t dwell on it too much.
this morning, cow worked on her laptop and put it away on the BOTTOM shelf of the cabinet before she left for class. nadiya and naveed were already out ‘cause they had morning classes. i was still at home in bed ‘cause i had a late class. cow comes back a few hours later and runs screaming into my room that her laptop had been moved again! she asked me if i moved it since i was the only person in the apartment. i didn’t. nobody else was in the apartment between the time she left and came back...only me. but i was just in my room. and the laptop was moved to the same EXACT location...top shelf, right hand corner. cow was 100% sure she left the laptop on the bottom shelf. there were dust marks on the bottom shelf to prove where cow had placed her laptop. apparently, the laptop was moved while i was alone in the apartment. now if i didn’t move it, who did?!?!? do we have Others living amongst us?!

salaam... don't scare us like that! *shiver*
isn't there this sound hadith that says if you read the ayatul kursi after fajr and maghrib, you are protected from jinns 24 hours?
it's all very freaky. I take my pc with me everywhere now so that they don't mess about with it.
Navbo also said she heard stuff during the night!! ack ack ack
its gotta be a jinn. i remember when we stayed as guests we brought food one day and put it in the fridge..the next day it was gone...creepy
Zubair
but the hadith...
yes, there is a hadith...but i'm not sure of the exact wording. basically, if you read the 3 quls and/or ayat ul-kursi in the morning and at night, you will be protected from jinns. that's what we do. so if they are present in the apt. they can't really do anything to us.
zubair, the food disappearing in the morning was not a jinn. either myself or my roommates ate the food.
I am looking for the mentioning of the ayat al qursi as well as sth i remembered abt calling th athan in the corners of your new home. but in the mean time...
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was taken on the Night Journey, he saw an evil jinn seeking him with a torch of fire. Whenever the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, turned, he saw him. Jibril said to him, 'Shall I teach you some words to say? When you say them, his torch will be put out and will fall from him.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Yes, indeed.' Jibril said, 'Say, 'I seek refuge with the Noble Face of Allah and with the complete words of Allah which neither the good person nor the corrupt can exceed, from the evil of what descends from the sky and the evil of what ascends in it, and from the evil of what is created in the earth and the evil of what comes out of it, and from the trials of the night and day, and from the visitations of the night and day, except for one that knocks with good, O Merciful!" "' Audhu bi wajhi'llahi' l-karim wa bi kalimati'llahi't-tammati. Allati la yujawazu hunna barra wa la fajir, min sharri ma yanzil min as-sama, wa sharri ma yaruju fiha, wa sham ma dhara' fi'l-ard, wa sharri ma yakhruju minha, wa min fitani'l-layli wa'n-nahar, wa min tawariqi'l-layli wa'n-nahar illa tariqan yatruq bikhayr ya Rahman! (Malik's Muwatta Book #51, Hadith #51.4.10)
jazak Allah khairan for that, k!
yes, like 'noods just said. it could be a landlord- not that the idea of a jinn is illogical. i mean i still have my old masr apt key.
