The question

Are the symptoms that the sister is experiencing, such as seeing disturbing phantoms and bad dreams, and dizziness when opening suspicious materials, truly magic? What is the correct ruqyah in this case? How can she protect herself in the future from a recurrence of this, and is it sufficient to supplicate during eating with the name of Allah, "In the name of Allah, with whose name nothing on earth or in the heavens can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing"?

The answer

There is nothing that definitively proves affliction by magic or that jinn cause what happens, but sorcerers may seek the help of devils. A Muslim should perform ruqya on themselves and fortify themselves with the reported invocations for protection. Saying "Bismillah" (in the name of Allah) before eating is beneficial, and it is better to consistently recite: "In the Name of Allah, with Whose Name nothing on earth or in the heavens can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing" three times in the morning and three times in the evening to be protected from sudden calamities.
