Extract of sample "Encounter with Chulawa"

John is 25 years old and still live with his parents. He comes from a religious family that practice Islam, he was taught Islamic teachings from early age. He is a person that respect God and follow Islamic teachings strictly. Apart from religion he is also somebody that cares about the wellbeing of his health and he always eat well balanced food and in the afternoon after Asr prayers he goes to a big lively old park close to their home on a daily basis for exercise. He always live home and jog to the park. One day he went through what changed his life.

One that day, John missed his fajar prayers because of late timing. He immediately left home and jog towards the park through his usual shortcut that has old big scary Bangla’s and tress. On his way he notice something that was unusual, there was a person jogging behind him and he was quite surprised to see that the man was wearing clothes similar to what he was wearing. Since it was something unusual and the clothing’s also surprised him, he found it hard to see him jogging behind him and he pretend that he was tired and stopped for a breath. To his surprise the man stopped in front of him and said "What’s wrong brother , out of breath so early for a guy of your age", John lied to him that he has started jogging after quite sometimes because he has been sick for a while. The man replied to John that he was lying to him because he sees him on a daily basis jogging on that path. John hurriedly cook another reason and told the man that he is sorry for lying because he was feeling embarrassed to say that he was feeling weak for failing to take breakfast. After that we introduced ourselves, his name was Chulawa.

After introduction we jog together towards the park as we learn more about one another, he was very friendly and jovial and I liked him so much. He later on took John to Pathan hotel for breakfast. They learn more about each other and exchanged contacts information. Chulawa told John that he was working as assistant manager in a company called Greenbelt ltd that manufacture plastic materials. Since John was unemployed he becomes interested with the man to learn more about the company. The man promised John to organize a job for him in the company because he was a good young man. They agreed to meet at a certain location so that he can take John to the company headquarters since John did know the location of the company. They met as per their schedule and they drove to a location John didn’t know. At some point, he told John let us go through a friend’s house that works together to collect something’s. They both leave the car on the gate and headed inside the friend’s house, what John didn’t is that he was being led to the world of Jinn’s.

On reaching the friend’s house, Chulawa introduced John to his friend and a discussion of knowing each other started. After a few seconds a meal was brought and that changed everything. The meal had certain spiritual powers and pulled John to a different world. John realized that something was wrong but already it was too late since he has been tricked into joining the system unknowingly. Chulawa told John that they had been send to track him and took him to a different world to serve the master of Chulawa and his friend. On hearing that he knew that he was in trouble and there is nothing much he can do now because he was already influenced. In Islam, jinn’s can become believers or infidels; they have a right to choose between following God or Iblis. Chulawa actions show that he was a jinni following Iblis.

John realized that he was tricked by jinn’s in form of human beings who he believed were serving evil. According to Islam teaching, Jinn was created by God like angels and human, but their difference is that they were created from smokeless fire and can take different forms, they are invisible and they can take a form of any creature, for example shape of human or animals. Since they were created from smokeless fire they are fiery in nature and thus their relationship with man has been built upon this. To John, Chulawa was a Jinni who had taken a form of a human being and came tricking him. Though John was religious, still he could be tricked by Jinn’s because according to Islam teachings jinn’s have the ability to possess and take over the minds over other creatures. John falling in love with Chulawa when they met jogging towards the park gave an opportunity to jinn to possess john.

Through their powers of invisibility and flying, they took John to a different world where he was to be trained on how to serve Iblis, the master of Chulawa. On reaching the new world, John found many people who are serving Iblis and some were being taught how to serve Iblis. John intentions were not to join the group serving Iblis and he taught of how he could leave the group. At that moment it was not possible to leave that world and the only way was to wait until that time when he will come back to the land of humans then he could use the Islamic knowledge to leave the group.

Before training starts, he was forced to swear that he will serve Chulawa master with all his heart or if he fails to do so he will be killed and used as a sacrifice. John accepted and started the training. The training involves how to serve Iblis and ways and means of tricking men into joining the group. The ways in which they can trick people into believing in them was through activities such as black magic, fortune telling, Voodoo, mediums, and witchcraft. Since jinn’s can traverse long distances within a short time, their value to magicians is great. Jinn’s normally help magicians in doing their work and in return Jinn’s then ask them to sell their souls to Iblis or to Jinn’s. Hence, magicians and those practicing black magic’s normally take Iblis or Jinn’s as their God instead of Allah. What make it easy for people to be pulled into believing in magic’s is that they portray themselves as believers of Allah and not Iblis. For example in Islam if a person is possessed by Jinn’s and wants them out, he will be taught how to recite Koran and when the person recite it the jinn’s will then be cursed out. What magicians do with the assistance of jinn’s is that they lure a person and the jinn’s then possess that person, a magician will then come and curse the Jinn’s out of that person and the person is set free. The person healed will then believe in the magicians and others who hear or see will also follow, this has made many people believe in magicians though they are evil.

John was trained how to work with magicians and do black magic’s and given powers than can make him change into different forms or even invisible to humans. He stayed in jinn’s world for more than a month before being sent back to humans land to start Iblis work. On reaching the human land the family members and people who knew him was surprised because of his disappearance to unknown place without telling anybody or communicating. When a person is possessed by jinn he cannot recall any event that occur when he is in that state, it is the jinn that will be speaking through that person, it is always recommended that sound coming out of that person should be recorded before exorcism since the person will not recollect any of the events that took place when possessed. In some situation jinn can easily leave a person body and in some situation they refuse to leave, it depends on how they like the body, jinn’s are known to refuse leaving bodies that they use to commit sins. On leaving the body they can either leave by air, blood flowing, or through breath. The color of the blood tells whether the jinn is still inside the body or it has left, red blood shows that it is still inside the body and black blood shows it has leave the body. Exorcism process is normally performed by sheikh that fears Allah.

When he arrived at home, the jinn that possessed him start speaking out instead of John himself. When the parents saw him he looks different from the person they knew, his eyes were red and body looks black, also he look confused and not speaking the way he used to talk. When asked where he was he replied that he had went to visit a friend and in the process he lost his phone and taught of just staying with friend and return back home soon. The explanation was not enough for the parents because he never leaves home for long time without saying where he is going or staying for long before communicating. When pressed by parents to explain in details, he responded harshly that he cannot explain anything more and he left. Parents new that something was wrong and they invited sheikh to visit home since John had a problem and looks as if he is possessed.

He started acting as if he is a preacher and wanted to start his own mission of preaching and healing people, in the process he will trick people into serving Iblis through means that he was trained to use. Many people who know him didn’t know that he was having a problem but parents knew that he had a problem. Many took his words seriously that he wanted to start being a preacher who can help get rid of jinn or other evil spirits in a person. Though he wanted to start preaching work, he used to avoid certain preachers who fear Allah because the jinn can tell which parson fear Allah and which does not since they have powers to know the reasoning of a person.

Because the parents knew that something was wrong with him, they always prayed for him and they told sheikh who had invited to go home and pray for john to also continue praying for him. Prayers from parents for john affected the jinn and John started behaving in a confused manner, doing funny things and he totally refused to be offered any prayers by the parents. The behavior started being visible to people around him and those he had convinced that he wanted to start preaching work started questioning his new behavior. Friends who knew him started running away from him and started being an isolated person. He started wanting to be alone in the house, eating a lone and refuse any form of prayers. Jinn inside him were feeling so uncomfortable and they feel like leaving john body because prayers from parents were destabilizing them so much.

Because of the behavior of being in the house a lone most of the time, it provided an opportunity for the parents to plan for exorcism though still parents were not sure whether John was possessed or not. Parents were to prepare a room at home and thought of a way of luring John into going to that room. The process of exorcism is carried out by a person with experience. There is a certain procedure in Islam for performing exorcism. The first is make wudhu and ensure that the house is clean; the room walls should be free of any images. When the person get to the room sheikh should place the hand on his forehead and speak close to the ear of the possessed person. Begin reciting istaadha (saying i seek refuge in Allah against the cursed Iblis). All the recital should be done loudly, and slowly, followed by prophets prayer, the say several duas asking Allah for protection and lastly surah fatihah. The sheikh then observe the person and incase a person is possessed some or all these symptoms are observed, person yelling, shouting, screaming, yawning much or much laughter, Staring at you, or staring at the ground Staring down, other procedures will then follow.

John parents forced him into getting to the room where exorcism is to be performed. When the sheikh arrived john wanted to run away but the door was locked. Sheikh started by placing his hand on john forehead and start speaking close to his ear. Then he started reciting istaadha loudly and slowly. Followed by prayers for the prophet and he started saying duas asking for Allah protection, he said ‘ooh Allah protect us from this enemy’, then surah fatihah. John started yelling and staring at the floor. Sheikh then recite some ayaats from surah Baqarah the beginning, at least the first 10, then ayatul. The jinn wanted to start a conversation with sheikh but he avoided joining the conversation because this will weaken his resolve and jinn will become stronger. Sheikh asked the jinn whether he is a Muslim or non-Muslim and the reasons that made him possesses the person and he immediately commanded to leave John. The jinn claimed that he is a non-Muslim and not ready to leave the person. He told sheikh that their god is Iblis and he wanted to use the person lure people into worshipping Iblis and incase he leaves he will be killed. Sheikh replied to the jinn that he can recite ayatul kursi or some other ayats for protection. The jinn were peaceful and he accepted to leave john body. He come back to his sense and could not remember what he has been going through. He was immediately told to make wudhu and recite ayats from Quran. From that time john learned that jinn can possesses a person in simple ways such as making you a friend before entering your body. He start making sure he makes at least two prayers in a day.
