The prayer that is most feared by jinns and demons is important for every Muslim to know. In addition to practicing dhikr readings, there are special prayers that can expel jinns from both our bodies and those around us.
Prayers to exorcise jinn and demons generally come from verses of the Koran. Apart from that, there is also the most powerful prayer which was even taught directly by the angel Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad SAW.
In addition to the prayers that have been taught by the angel Gabriel, in the Al-Quran there are also several verses that are also very feared among the jinn. Want to know the reading of the prayer and the story behind the efficacious prayer to burn and expel the jinn? Come on, see the review below.
Signs of People Bullied by Jin
In everyday life, we sometimes encounter houses, offices or places that are disturbed by jinns, demons or other supernatural beings. In fact, there are also jinn who disturb humans, both to others and to themselves, both visibly like being possessed or not, which is usually marked by the appearance of symptoms of anxiety, restlessness, lazy worship, slurred speech, unclear illness, and other strange symptoms.
In such conditions, we can carry out expulsion efforts such as reciting verses from the Koran and so on. However, there are times when reciting the verses of the Koran does not work to drive it away, as the Prophet saw experienced during the jinn’s night, the night when the jinns heard the Koran.
As told by Ibn Mas’ud, that night, the Prophet SAW was visited by an Ifrit genie who was carrying a fiery torch in his hand. There are also those who argue that the Prophet visited by the genie Ifrit on the night of isra-mi’raj. At that time, he then read the verses of the Koran.
However, there was no reaction except that the genie was getting closer. So, the angel Gabriel offered him, “Shall I teach you some sentences that if you read them, they will fall down and the torch will die?” (Narrated by Malik, an-Nasa’i, ath-Thabrani, and others).
In human life, you must have heard or seen disturbances by jinn against mankind. This cannot be denied.
For that, it’s a good idea to equip yourself as a form of defense to help yourself or others in need. There will always be jinn that disturb humans, both visually and through the subconscious.
You should memorize the prayer for exorcising jinn in Islam just in case you need it one day.
The Elixir Prayer Burns and Exorcises the Jinn
The Prayer Taught by the Angel Gabriel to Rasulullah SAW
This story is told in several books such as the Book of An-Nur Al Wahhaj Fi Qishati Al Isra wal Mi’raj, the Book of Al-Anwar Al-Bahiyyah, the Book of Wa Huwa bil Ufuq Al-A’la, and many others. During the Isra Mi’raj journey, the Prophet was given a miracle by Allah, namely being able to see the jinn.
While on the way, there were lots of Ifrit genies who wanted to attack him with fire in their hands. At that moment, the angel Gabriel came to the Prophet and said, “Would you like me to teach you a sentence, if you say it, the fire will go out and he will fall down on his face?”
Prayer to Exorcise Jin Taught by the Archangel Gabriel
The angel Gabriel then taught several sentences which, after being read by the Prophet, the Ifrit genie immediately fell down and the torch he was carrying immediately went out. The following is a prayer taught by the angel Gabriel to the Prophet to expel the most powerful jinn.
The Prophet then said, ” Teach me O Jibril”. Then, the angel Gabriel replied,
أَعُوذُ بِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ الْكَرِيمِ، وَبِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ الَّتِي لَا يُجَاوِزُهُنَّ بَرٌّ وَلَا فَاجِرٌ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَعْرُجُ فِيهَا. وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا ذَرَأَ فِي الْأَرْضِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا، وَمِنْ شَرِّ فِتَنِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ طَوَارِقِ اللَّيْلِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ طَارِقٍ إِلَّا طَارِقًا يَطْرُقُ بِخَيْرٍ يَا رَحْمَنُ.
A’udzu bi wajhillahil karim wa bi Kalimatillahit tammati lati la yujawizuhunna barrun wala faajirun min syarri maa yanzilu minas sama’i, wa min syarri ma ya’ruju fiha, wa min syarri ma dzara’a fil ardhi, wa min syarri ma yakhruju minha , wa min fitanil laili wan nahari, wa min thoriqil laili wannahari, illa thariqan yanthiqu bi khairin, ya rahman.
Meaning: “I seek refuge with the face of Allah, the Most Honorable and with the perfect words of Allah, which no good person and no ungodly person can surpass, from any evil that descends from the sky and from any evil that rises to sky; from whatever evil enters the earth and from whatever evil comes out of the earth; from slander during the night and during the day; from the disasters of the night and the day, except those that come with good, O Most Merciful One.”
After Rasulullah SAW read the prayer, the Ifrit jinn immediately fell down and the fire he had brought to attack Rasulullah SAW was immediately extinguished. Then, Rasulullah SAW continued his glorious journey back.
The Throne Verse
Apart from the prayer above, here are the verses of the Qur’an that Jin and Satan fear the most. This verse is very famous and has great virtue, namely Ayat Kursi. Rasulullah SAW said: “Indeed it (Verse of Chairs) is a very great verse contained in the Qur’an.”
Ayat Kursi is found in Surah Al-Baqarah Verse 255, which contains the oneness of Allah and His absolute power. It was narrated from Abdullah bin Ubay bin Ka’ab, his father (Ka’ab) once told him that he had a large container filled with dates.
His father used to look after the barrel of dates, but he found it running low. One night, when he was guarding it, suddenly he saw an animal that looked similar to a baligh boy.
Then Ka’ab greeted him. The creature also answered Ka’ab’s greeting. “Who are you, Jin or human?” asked Ka’ab. “I’m Jin,” he replied. “Take your hand in mine.” The creature reached out to Ka’ab, and it turned out that its hands were like dog paws and so was its fur. “Is that really the form of the Jinn?” asked Ka’ab again. “You now know Jin. Among them, there is no one stronger than me.”
“What prompts you to do this?” “It has come to me that you are a human being who likes to give charity, so we want to get some of your food.”
“What can protect us from your interference?” The genie said: “This verse, namely Ayat Kursi.”
The next day, Ka’ab went to meet the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam and told him about it. The Prophet said: “It is true what the evil one said.” (Reported by Hakim, quoted by Ibn Kathir when interpreting Ayat Kursi)
In another history, it is told the story of Abu Hurairah radhiyallahu ‘anhu who managed to catch a thief in the zakat warehouse during the month of Ramadan. When the thief was caught, he taught the great sentence to Abu Hurairah so that he would not be taken prisoner.
“When you sleep, recite Ayat Kursi: Allahu laa Ilaaha illaa Huwal-Hayyul Qayyum… until the end of the verse. And he also said: “If you read that, then you will always be guarded by Allah, and Satan will not approach you until morning.” Rasulullah SAW told Abu Hurairah that the thief was a devil in disguise.
Quoted from the Muslim Fiqh page, one of the most effective prayers to expel jinns and demons is QS. Al-Baqarah verse 255 or often known as Ayat Kursi. In a history from Ubay bin Ka’ab, this verse is even called the most glorious verse in the Al-Quran. It contains none other than the oneness and absolute power of Allah over all things. The following are Arabic and Latin readings and their meanings:
اَللهُ لآَإِلهَ إِلاَّهُوَالْحَىُّ الْقَيُّوْمُ ج لاَتَأْخُذُه سِنَةٌ وَلاَنَوْمٌ ط لَهُ مَافِى السَّموَاتِ وَمَافِى اْلاَرْضِ قلى مَنْ ذَالَّذِيْ يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَه اِلاَّبِاِذْنِه ط يَعْلَمُ مَابَيْنَ اَيْدِيْهِمْ وَمَاخَلْفَهُمْ ج وَلاَيُحِيْطُوْنَ بِشَيْئٍ مِنْ عِلْمِه اِلاَّبِمَاشَآءَ ج وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّموَاتِ وَاْلاَرْضَ ج وَلاَيَؤدُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَالْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيْمُ
“Allahu laa ilaaha illaa huwal hayyul qayyum. Laa ta’khudzuhuu sinatuw wala naum. Lahuu maa fissamaawaati wa maa fil ardh. Man dzal ladzii yasfa’u ‘ indahuu illaa bi idznih. Ya’lamu maa baina aidiihim wamaa khalfahum. Wala yuhituna bi syai-in min ‘ilmihi illa bi maa syaa-a. Wasi’a Kursiyyuhus samaawaati wal ardha walaa ya-uuduhuu hifzhuhumaa Wahuwal ‘aliyyul ‘azhiim.”
Meaning: “Allah, there is no God (who has the right to be worshiped) but He Who is eternally alive and continuously takes care of (His creatures); not sleepy and not sleeping. To Him belongs what is in the heavens and on earth. Nothing can intercede with Allah without His permission? Allah knows what is before them and behind them, and they know nothing from Allah’s knowledge except what He wills. Allah’s chair covers the heavens and the earth. And Allah does not find it hard to care for both of them, and Allah is Most High, Most Great.”
Surah Al-Mu’minun Verses 97-98
The next prayer is QS. Al-Mu’minun Verses 97-98 which basically contains about asking Allah SWT for protection from the whispers of jinns and demons.
رَّبِّ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزٰتِ الشَّیٰطِیْنِۙ وَ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ رَبِّ اَنْ یَّحْضُرُوْن
“Robbi a’uudzubika min hamazaatisy-syayaathiin wa a’udzubika robbi ayyahdhuruun.”
Meaning: “O my Lord, I take refuge in You from the whispers of satan and I also take refuge in You, O my Lord, so that they do not come near me.”
Say Taawudz
Audzubillah himinas syaiton nirojim
Meaning: “I seek refuge in Allah from the temptations of the accursed Satan.”
Surah Al-Falaq
Qul a’udzu birabbil-falaq. Min syarri ma khalaq. Wa min syarri gasiqin iza waqab. Wa min syarri-naffasati fil-‘uqad. Wa min syarri hasidin idza hasad.
Meaning : “Say, ‘I seek refuge in God who controls the dawn (dawn), from the evil (creature) created, and from the evil of the night when it is pitch dark, and from the evil (women) witches who blow on knots ( rope), and from the evil of an envious person when he is envious.”
Surah An-Nas
Surah An-Nas can also be used as a practice to expel demons. Besides that, if you read the meaning of this letter, the point is actually in our hearts. Satan and jinn usually enter through our hearts and affect humans and make them afraid.
For this reason, from now on we can use it as remembrance and prayer to expel demons and jinn from our homes.
Qul a’udzu birabbinnas. Malikin-nas. Ilah-nas. Min syarril-waswasil-khannas. Alladzi yuwaswisu fi sudurin-nas. Minal-jinnati wannas.
Meaning: “Say, “I seek refuge in the Lord of humans, the King of humans, the worship of humans, from the evil (whispering) of the devil hiding, who whispers (evil) into the human bosom, from (groups of) jinns and humans.”
QS. Shaad verse 41
رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ الشَّيْطَانُ بِنُصْبٍ وَعَذَابٍ | رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِوَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحْضُرُونِ | وَحِفْظاً مِّن كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ مَّارِدٍ
Rabbi Annii Massaniya as-SYaithoonu binusybin Wa Adaba, Rabbi A’udzu bika min Hamazaati-s-I am Thiini, Wa A’udzubika Rabbi an Yahdhurun. Wa khifzhon min kulli Syaithoonin Maarid.
Meaning: ” Indeed, I was disturbed by Satan with great discomfort and suffering . “
Al Mukminun verses 97-98
رَّبِّ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزٰتِ الشَّیٰطِیْنِۙ وَ اَعُوْذُ بِكَ رَبِّ اَنْ یَّحْضُرُوْن
“Robbi a’uudzubika min hamazaatisy-syayaathiin wa a’udzubika robbi ayyahdhuruun.”
Meaning: “O my Lord, I take refuge in You from the whispers of satan and I also take refuge in You, O my Lord, so that they do not come near me.”
QS. As-Shaffat verse 7
وَ حِفْظًا مِّنْ كُلِّ شَیْطٰنٍ مَّارِدٍ
Latin: “Wa hifzhon min kulli syaithoonin maarid”.
Meaning: “And (We) have guarded it from every rebellious devil.” (As-Saffat Verse 7)
call to prayer
In Imam Nawawi’s Adzkar book, it is stated that the call to prayer can be effective in expelling these spirits. This comes from the hadith of the Prophet SAW.
Idaza taggolawat Lakumul ghollanu fanaaduu bil adzani
Meaning: “If spirits bother you, then call to prayer.”
Basmalah
Besides the Seat Verse, the most feared and hated verse by Jin and Satan is the first verse that opens Surah Al-Fatihah, namely the sentence “Basmalah”.
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Bismillahir rahmanir Rahim
Meaning: “In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.” (QS Al-Fatiha Verse 1)
This verse can provide protection from Satan when read, with Allah’s permission. Reciting Bismillah is not only useful for preventing the entry of demons, but can also expel the devil itself.
One of the virtues of Basmalah is that the devil shrinks if we recite “Bismillah” in every thing we do.
Prophet Solomon’s prayer
This prayer of Prophet Sulaiman is found in Surah An-Naml verses 30-31 which reads as follows.
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّ حْمَنِ الرَّ حِيْمِ , اَلَّا تَعْلُوا عَلَىَّ وَاْتُونِى مُسْلِمِيْنَ
Meaning: “In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Don’t be arrogant towards me, and come to me as someone who has surrendered.”
How to Overcome Fear of Jinn and Satan
Satan and jinn will never stop to harass humanity. In fact, not infrequently the disturbances they do actually have a bad impact on humans.
Therefore, in order for us to avoid being disturbed by Satan, we should often read the holy verses of the Koran with the intention of keeping ourselves safe. There are several prayers to expel demons from the human body that you can try reading.
Satan consists of various types and there are good and bad as well. Usually it is these evil demons that tend to annoy humans and have misleading goals. However, often we are not aware of this disturbance from Satan.
When you are at home and feel that you are being disturbed by a genie or a demon which creates excessive fear, start with calm and think clearly. If we are sure that there are no disturbing or disturbing things, then there is no reason to be afraid of being disturbed by jinns and demons.
Pray more and if we always remember the existence of Allah, jinns and demons will not disturb us excessively. Jinn and satan disturbances are more in the form of encouragement to do negative things that arise from within us.
However, for people who are always anxious, there is no guarantee that their fear will disappear, unless they really believe that they will always be protected by Allah SWT whenever and wherever they are.
Thus the discussion about the efficacious prayer of burning and expelling the jinn. Hopefully after reading this article to the end, you will be braver against jinn and demons.
