How Can We Protect Ourselves From the Evil of Jinn

Question :

I am blind and I live by myself; every night, jinn come and I become frightened. Now, when I take my copy of the Qur'an and put it down in a certain way, they go away. Some people say that I am debasing the Qur'an by the way I put it down. Please advise me.

Answer:

You must remember Allah Almighty before going to sleep by reading Ayat Al-Kursi, Surat Al-Ikhlas, and the last two chapters (Surah) of the Qur'an. You should also say the following two supplications, three times each, both in the morning and in the evening: "I seek refuge in Allah's perfect Words from the evil that He has created." "In the name of Allah, by Whose name nothing is harmed, neither in the earth nor in the sky, and He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing." By doing so, you will, if Allâh wills, be protected from jinn. You should not, however, use a copy of the Qur'an in any way that may debase it. We ask Allah Almighty to cure you and to protect us all from any Shaytan.

With Allah is the facilitation to do what is right.

May Allah send peace and blessings on Muhammad, his family and his Companions.
