Family saved from a witch's spell found in their bathroom

Islam believes in magic and spells so when anything goes wrong with an individual or a family, they first think they have been the victim of a magic spell. Naturally they look for the witch, and in this case it turns out to be the former maid of the household. When authorities found the spell they succeeded in defusing it, thus ending the families curse.

Is it any wonder that Islam is still stuck in the 7th century?

Family saved from magic spell

Saudi Arabia’s religious police saved a family that had suffered from psychological and health problems because of a magic spell cast by their housemaid before departing from the Gulf Kingdom.

In a report from the capital Riyadh, a newspaper said the family plunged into endless problems just after the departure of their Asian maid. But its members restored normal life once the spell was found and neutralized by experts.

The spell was wrapped in a small old piece of paper carrying unreadable language and hidden inside a deserted bathroom adjoining their house, the Arabic language daily Sabq said.

“When the spell was found, the family realized that it was he cause of all their sudden troubles,” the paper said.

It quoted relatives as saying the spell had prompted the wife of the elder son to abandon him and live with her parents while the mother started to suffer from trances and nightmares. Another son suddenly had mental problems.

The paper said the family took the spell to the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, which has an anti-magic section.

Where the members of the commission waved some amulets, recited some mumbo-jumbo, maybe even used blood and feathers to dispel the curse. What a wonderful culture that enshrines magic in their legal codes.
