[In the name of Allah and with Allah: in the name of Allah-that which Allah wills (takes place); in the name of Allah- there is no power nor strength save with Allah. Musa said : What you have brought is sorcery; verily Allah will soon make it vain: verily Allah does not put in order the work of the mischief-makers.
Thus the truth was established, and what they were doing was made vain.So there and then (Firawn and his enchanters) were defeated and made to look small, humiliated]

[I take refuge (to seek protection from the evil threatening me) with the might of Allah, the power of Allah, the strength of Allah, the greatness of Allah, the demonstration of Allah, the sovereignty of Allah, the assistance of Allah, the security of Allah, the amnesty of Allah, the shield of Allah, the kindness of Allah, the pride of Allah, the attention of Allah, the beauty of Allah, the grandeur of Allah, the perfection of Allah-there is no god save Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah]

3.Recite the following dua'a to remain safe from the evil of shaytan, genie, and wicked person.
LAA ILAAHA ILLAA HUWA A'LAYHI TAWAKKALTU WA HUWA RABBUL A'RSHIL A'Z'EEM MAA SHAA-ALLAAHU KAANA WA MAA LAM YASHAA LAM YAKUN ASHHADU ANNALLAAHA A'LAA KULLI SHAY-IN QADEER WA ANNALLAAHA QAD AH'AAT'A BIKULLI SHAY-IN ILMAA ALLAAHUMMA INNEE A-O'OD'U BIKA MIN SHARRI NAFSEE WA MIN SHARRI KULLI DAABBATIN ANTA AAKHID'UM BINAAS'IYATIHAA INNA RABBEE A'LAA S'IRAAT'IM MUSTAQEEM

 
[There is no god save He. I rely on Him. He is the Lord of the great a'rsh. What He wills takes place; and what He does not will does not take place. I bear witness that, verily, Allah, has power over all things: and, verily, Allah encompasses every thing in (His) knowledge, O my Allah, I seek refuge with You from the evil inside me and from the evil of every creature whom You seizes with its forelock. Verily my lord is on the right path]
4.The Holy Prophet said : To keep the devils at bay and to destroy the effects of magic recite verses 54 to 56 of Al Araf.
INNA RABBAKUMULLAAHUL LAD'EE KHALAQAS SAMAAWAATI WAL ARZ'A FEE SITTATI AYYAAMIN THUMAS-TAWAA A'LAL A'RSH YUGHSHIL LAYLAN NAHAARA YAT'LUBUHOO H'ATHEETHAW WASH SHAMSA WAL QAMARA WAN NAJOOMA MUSAKHKHARAATIM BI AMRIH ALAA LAHUL KHALQU WAL AMR

[Verily your Lord is Allah who created the heavens and the earth in six days, then established Himself on the throne. He draws the night as a veil over the day, which pursues it incessantly; and made the sun and the moon and the stars subservient to His command. Verily, His is the creation and the command. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the worlds. Call on your Lord humbly and in secret. Verily Allah does not love the transgressors. And do not make mischief in the earth after it has been reformed; and call on Him fearing (His wrath) and longing (his mercy). Verily the mercy of Allah is near to those who do good]

They did as advised and their son was fully cured. This du'a' according to the scholar, is also a sure safeguard against witchcraft and sorcery:
ALLAAHUMMA RABBI MOOSAA WA KHAAS'S AHOO BIKALAAMIHEE WA HAAZIMA MAN KAADAHOO BISH'RIHEE BI-A'S'AAHU WA MU-E'EDAHAA BA'DAL A'WDI THU'BAANAN WA MUFSIDA A'MALIS SAAH'IREENA WA MUBT'ILA KAYDI AHLIL FASAADI MAN KAADANEE BISIH'RIN AW BIZ'URRIN A'MADAN AW GHAYRA A'MADIN A'LAMUHOO AW LAA A'LAMUHOO AKHAAFUHOO AW LAA AKHAAFUHOO FAQ-TA'MIN ASBAABIS SAMAAWAATI A'MALAHOO H'ATTAA TURIJ-A'HOO A'NNEE GHAYRA NAAFID'IN WA LAA Z'AARRIN LEE WA LAA SHAMMATIN LEE INNEE ADRA-U BI-A'Z'MATIKA FEE NUH'OORIL A'-DAA-I FAKUN LEE MINHUM MUDAAFI-A'N AH'SANA MUDAAFA-ATAN WA ATAMMAHAA YAA KAREEM
[O my Allah - the Lord of Musa, when He particularly selected to honour him with His spoken words. He routed those who teased Musa with their (tricks of) magic, with the help of his rod (granted to Musa by Allah) . He transformed (the rod) into a serpent. And again brought it back to its original state, after it destroyed the work of the magicians and rendered ineffective the deceit of the mischief makers - whosoever tries to harm me with magic or affliction, intentionally or unintentionally, whether I know about it or not, whether it frightens me or not, cut off his (evil) designs with the help of divine medium, so that it does not reach me and never carried out to hurt me or terrorize me. Verily, I ward off, with the help of your greatness, the threats of my enemies. So protect me with the best protection and make it thoroughly effective. O liberal giver]

(Note: Say 'Ka" if the person, for whom you are praying, is a male or "Ki" if female.
[In the name of Allah I give you in protection (of Allah) from every thing that pains you, from every thing and the (evil) eye, self-indulgence and the jealous. In the name of Allah I give you in protection (of Allah) Allah is the greatest, and His might is the mightiest]
8.Imam Ali bin Husayn Zayn al Abidin said : Recite the following du'a'a with raised hands to remain safe from these (jinn or men) who are planning to harm you.
BISMILLAAHI WA BILLAAHI WA MINALLAAHI WA ILALLAAHI WA FEE SABEELILLAAHI ALLAHUMMA LAKA ASLAMTU NAFSEE WA ILAYKA WAJJAHTU WAJHEE WA ILAYKA FAWWAZ'TU AMREE WAH'FIZ'NEE BIH'IFZ'IL BEEMAANI MIN BAYNI YADAYYA WA MIN KHALFEE WA A'N YAMEENEE WA A'N SHIMAALEE WA MIN FAWQEE WA MIN TAH'TEE WAD-FA A'NNEE BIH'AWLIKA WA QUWWATIKA FA-INNAHOO LAA H'AWLA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLA BILLAAHIL A'LIYYIL A'ZEEM
[In the name of Allah, with Allah, from Allah, unto Allah, and in the way of Allah; O Allah, I surrender myself to You, I direct myself towards You, I entrust my affairs to You, so keep me safe, with the preservation of belief, from in front of me, from behind me, from my right side, from my left side, from above me, from below me, and repel (evil) from me with Your strength and power, because, verily, there is no strength and no power save with Allah, the high, the great]
 9.The Holy Prophet said : If jinn throw stones at your home, take one of the stones and recite the following du a'a. Inshallah the jinn will go away :

H'ASBIYALLAAHU WA KAFAA SAMI-A'LLAAHU LIMAN DA-A'A LAYSA WARAA - A'LLAAHI MUNTAHAA
[Allah is sufficient and satisfying for me. Allah hears (the call of) whosoever calls (Him). There is no one (and nothing) as the ultimate save Allah]

Chamomile Tea Benefits

 Chamomile tea benefits cover classifications from A to Z, from head to toe, from youth to old age.

 

# Which herbal remedy can you safely use for your baby’s bath, rash or constipation?

Chamomile is one of the first herbs that I remember. Chamomile tea is the first tea my mother gave me, and which, in my turn and I gave my daughter. 

In the first months of her life, I added chamomile and calendula tea to her daily bath.
When she was about 5 weeks old she got a rash on her face. I prepared a concentrated infusion of chamomile and calendula and I washed her face with a cotton ball soaked in infusion. In a couple of days the rash cleared.
I also turned to chamomile tea benefits when my daughter, Roxana, had alternating episodes of constipation and diarrhea.

# Does your stomach hurts? Which safe natural remedy should you choose for gastritis, colic or diarrhea?

Chamomile is highly effective in all diseases of the stomach and intestines. The explanation lies in the fact that Chamomile flowers volatile oil contains azulene and apigenin (a flavonoid glycoside) which have antispasmodic, anesthetic, disinfectant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Gastritis. Because of all these qualities, chamomile tea soothes stomach muscle spasms caused by gastritis and colitis accompanied by colic.
My father drinks chamomile tea for his ulcer and for all his stomach grievances, such as bloating, flatulence, indigestion or heartburn. Usually, he drinks chamomile tea in combination with Marigold. This combination makes the best anti spasm sedative.
Colic. Give chamomile tea, along with anise and fennel, to children to relieve colic and help gas removal.
Diarrhea. Chamomile tea works best if you combine it with Peppermint for diarrhea and nausea.

 

# How to ease allergies and asthma in children with this herbal remedy?

The azulene in the chamomile oil also improves some allergic states or asthma in children and also in adults.

An easy and safe way to use chamomile for asthma and allergies is to make steam inhalations. Inhalations are recommended in sinusitis too.
Do the inhalations before bedtime because the volatile oil from chamomile has a calming action on the central nervous system. A cup of chamomile tea also helps if you can’t sleep at night.


# How to use Chamomile to alleviate menstrual pain, toothache, earache or neuralgia?

Menstrual Pain. Chamomile tea has been long used for calming pain. Combine Chamomile with Marigold and Lady’s mantle to enhance the chamomile tea benefits.

Toothache. Gargle with chamomile tea to relieve toothache pain.
Earache. Chamomile is an earache remedy used both for ear washes, as well as in poultices, to alleviate the pain.
Put
dried chamomile flowers in a small gauze bag on a heated cover over a steam bath. Apply the chamomile poultice on the painful ear and keep it for 10 minutes. Repeat 2 times a day.
Neuralgia. In case you suffer from neuralgia (pain in one or more nerves) drink a cup of chamomile infusion sweetened with honey or do massages with chamomile oil.

# How to ease hemorrhoid pain with these herbal remedies?

Chamomile is an ideal natural hemorrhoid treatment because it has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. Chamomile tea is recommended internally as well as externally (sitz baths, compresses and ointment).

For internal treatment, prepare an infusion from 1 teaspoon of dried flowers in 200 ml of boiling water and drink 2-3 cups daily after main meals.You can also apply local compresses with chamomile infusion (2 tablespoons of dried flowers in a cup of boiling water).For daily hygiene alternate sitz baths with Chamomile and Marigold infusion.
You will find Chamomile, Saint John’s Wort and Chestnut in most balms for postpartum hemorrhoids because they are safe herbs for breastfeeding.

# Is there a simple and natural way to clean the face without any cosmetic products?



One of the most used chamomile tea benefits is actually a steam inhalation. Do steam inhalations with chamomile to remove the toxins from your skin and deep clean your pores


  • Boil 1 liter / 35 oz water in a large pan, add a handful of chamomile flowers and let steep for 5 minutes.
  • Bend over with your eyes closed, approximately 8 to 10 inches from the pan. Use a large towel to cover your head and the pan so that the steam stays inside. 
  • Inhale the steam for about 5-10 minutes.
  • Splash cool water on your face to close the pores.

If your skin is wrinkled, irritated, congested or dry, you can also use chamomile infusion compresses.

# How to regain the blonde hair reflexes with this natural treatment at home?

It’s as simple as a hair rinse with chamomile infusion. Your hair will become softer and will regain its golden reflexes. As a bonus, it will strengthen fine or split hair.

Boil 2-3 cups of water and then put 2 tablespoons of chamomile flowers. Let them boil for another 20 minutes.
You can wet your hair with the tea. After shampooing, rinse with normal water and then with the rest of the tea.

Three levels of taqwaa (piety)


Taqwaa has three levels:

The first: Protecting the heart and limbs from sins and all forbidden matters.

The second: Protecting the heart and limbs form disliked matters [Makrooh].

The third: Protecting oneself from the fudool and what does not concern him.


The first gives the servant his life, the second gives him health and strength and the third enables him to gain happiness, contentment and light.
