Arabic Amulets with precious stones

An amulet is an object believed to be endowed with certain magical or protective qualities. Different stones were originally worn as amulets in Uruk as early as the fourth millennium BC. And they continue to be used today by Muslims. In the Islamic world, the wearing of semi-precious or precious stones engraved with Quranic prayers, names of God and calligraphic texts is widespread.

It is believed that such a stone, which carries divine words, will protect its owner from all kinds of troubles and dangers or will endow him with certain benefits. Such amulet stones contain a wide variety of inscriptions, from religious texts, numbers, and astrological signs to magical symbols and characters, and intended to be carried in a pocket, wrapped in cloth, as pendants, mounted on rings or directly hung in homes for protection. Some are also used as seals or a personal sign. It is believed that the material from which they are made or the stone itself is particularly important since each is characterized by certain properties.

Stones also have their place in traditional medicine, where they are attributed to certain healing properties related to a given disease or health condition. Folk healers advise that each stone, according to its purpose, be permanently worn on a metal ring. Here we will give you examples for the most popular stones and minerals and their magical and mystical properties.

    Harut and Maurut

    Harut and Marut are famous fallen angels in Islamic cosmology. They have taught people in Babylon about magic and have tested their faith. They are mentioned once in the Qur’an in the verse about the infidels following the teachings of the Devils (Shaitans). “Instead, they followed what the evil ones used to practice during Solomon’s reign. Not that Solomon himself was one who denied the truth; it was the evil ones who denied the truth. They taught people witchcraft and what was revealed in Babylon to the two angels Harut and Marut, although these two never taught it to anyone without first declaring, “We are nothing more than a temptation to evil: Do not deny [God’s] truth.” From these two, they learned what can separate a man from his wife, although they harm no one with it except with God’s permission. They learned what harmed them, not what benefited them, knowing full well that whoever acquired [this knowledge] would have no share in the Hereafter. Surely, evil is the [price] for which they sold their souls, if only they realized that.”Al-Bakara: 102The origin of these angels and the nature of their transgression remain unclear, which is why Muslim theologians are trying to explain them by referring to Talmudic, Iranian and even Greek legends. The Harut and Marut’s History in Islam As humanity was growing on the earth, its corruption forced the angels of heaven to complain to God who was too indulging in humans. However, God told them that if they were put in the place of man under the same conditions and surrounded by passions and pleasures, pushing people to commit sins the angels themselves would not have done differently and would succumb.

    Rue – An Herb for Attracting Good Luck and Prosperity

    Rue (Ruta graveolens) is one of the most well-known herbs in the folk medicine and magical tradition among the Balkan Muslims. Its use is multifaceted, mainly used to purify the home space and the human body from negative forces. Rue is a plant of Mediterranean origin, growing in places with a dry climate. Because of its specific smell, the herb is also used as an insect repellant, and traditionally at least one sprig is kept in the wardrobe next to the clothes. The rue was known for its protective qualities among the Greeks and Romans, being used to ward off evil forces and treat various health problems. The remnants of these ancient beliefs are preserved in folk medicine, where, for example, it is claimed that the herb successfully cures all heart diseases. Even Shakespeare himself gave the rue the unusual name “god’s mercy” because of the ritual practice of soaking a sprig of it in water and sprinkling it on possessed people. In some Mediterranean cultures, the plant is widely used in cooking because of its rich vitamin C content. Herb against diseases and evils In addition to its many medicinal uses, the herb occupies a prominent place in folk beliefs and as a means of combating evil forces, mainly because of its smell, as well as the unusual appearance of its leaves, which resemble an outstretched human palm. This was reason enough for it to gain fame as a plant that protects against evil. Traditionally rue is cultivated in homes, near the front door, because of the belief that in this way it will protect the home and its inhabitants from evil eyes, magic and harmful spirits. Young children wear leaves of the herb or leaves are put under...

    The Jinn’s Meal – Ritual for Healing

    In traditional North African magic, in the presence of a mysterious illness that does not lend itself to normal treatment, the intervention of djinns is taken into account. It is believed that whether physical or mental illness, it can be caused by the influence of a jinn on a person as a result of possession. If this is the case, appropriate treatment involving either exorcism or propitiation should be undertaken. In addition to being the cause of various sufferings, jinn are also known as healers, capable of curing diseases caused by other jinn or of natural origin. In other words, when nothing else has worked and proved ineffective, it does not hurt to seek help from the jinns. For this purpose, there are various practices, some of which can be performed by the affected person, and others only by dedicated sorcerers or healers. This highly complex Moroccan rite requires the preparation of a symbolic meal as an offering to the jinn and is intended to cure ailments caused by them. Their symptoms usually include fever, hallucinations, drowsiness, restlessness, and body aches, and the sufferer may talk to themselves or to unseen visitors. In addition to the relatives of the patient, who will perform the ritual actions, the participation of four women is also required. One of them, who will play the main role, must be old or past a critical age, and the other three women must be married, and none of them must have had a previous marriage or remain a widow. It is considered even better if no one has lost a child. Each of the married women must bring two handfuls of flour, which is mixed and put in a white cotton cloth. It is tied to...
