    Just a note for everyone, Islam does not condone the use of talisman and any kind of magic. A true muslim seek refuge from any evil and dangerous things only in The Almighty, Allah. A muslim can't even use the book quran as a protection from anything. The 'quran' means 'to recite'. A muslim can recite the verse of the quran to seek refuge by it (knowing that Allah will protect them by those verse from evil). Any sign of quranic verses written in/on any form of talisman is a form of shirik "Associating God with something in power to protect you". Written verse cannot protect you from anything by itself, but reciting quranic verse in hope that Allah gives protect does the work.

      And extremists Sufi, pir shia who believe that man can become GOD by reaching highest level of spirituality like irani shia Sufi mansoor hallaj will also follow antichrist by considering as their mahdi or mystical Sufi mansoor hallaj with mighty power as he said his followers that he would come back possibly to take revenge against the true believers (Muslims) of Islam.
      Hindus as well as christians believe that their god come to earth in human form to be deceived by antichrist (dajjal). Because most of them worship material things (money,powers,names, fames, worldly things etc.). They (Hindus Buddhists christians) also worship Jin Satan to open their 3rd eye!
      Christianity= Hinduism
      Denomination= Caste
      Trinity= Trimurti

      And all of them support the blasphemy (I'm God & worship me) of Irani shia sufi monsoor hallaj like Kabbalah Jew to be deceived by antichrist (dajjal) by considering him as their mahdi/mystical sufi! Nauzubillah

The return of Mystical Sufi Hallaj with mighty evil power as he said to his followers that he would come back after his death possibly to take revenge against the true believers (Muslims) of Islam!
      Irani Shia sufi Monsoor Hallaj who is a famous pir of dewbondi, tableeghi Jamaat, berelvi (rizvi) used to worship jin satan like Kabbalah Jew, christian saints,Buddhists,hindu pandits to open 3rd eye to reach the highest level of spirituality. That's why these blasphemous words “anal haq (I’m truth/god) and prostrate to me” were coming out from the mouth of mansur hallaj.

    Interesting fact about Shams al-Maarif: in 1984, Serhan Tayşi - the director of Turkish National Library (which is famous for its manuscrips) recieved a letter from Ministry of Culture said that the US asked for a book named Shams al-Maarif. Curious, Tayşi took the book and began to examine it. This manuscript, unlike the prints on the market, explains some key points on how to use the knowledge provided. After that, Tayşi refused to give the book. Due to pressure from the Ministry of Culture, he brought the issue to the MIT (Turkish CIA) and the General Staff. At the end the book wasn’t given and General Staff thanked Tayşi.

The Greek mystery of Eurasian is revealed via sex which was “Greece” initiation or Hellenization.. Psyche and Persephone are main characters. Psyche simply means soul. The part about the pomegranate is these Kabbalah Jews. The descendants of Judah were sold as slaves to the Greeks. Joel 3:6. In Jeremiah 17 those sins are etched in their minds like a stone.

    This book and other books full of talismans and incantations were collectively known as "al kutub al safraa" (the yellow (paged) books). Being found with one in your possession was enough to have you accused of heresy or witchcraft and sent to jail.
    I once saw one of these books and was able to go through the various spells inside and actually found one particularly notorious spell: the one to use to make a woman you desire come to you. It involves drawing certain talismans and symbols on your member and calling out the loved one's name at night.
    Anyway, they say a man was desperately in love with a woman called "Barda'a" (Arabic for saddle, Bedouins often named their daughters similar names). So someone recommended that he try this particular spell after seeing how much he desired this woman. Our friend was not a learned or religious person, he knew little about Djinn and occult things, but he decided to give it a try if there was any chance he could be with the woman he wanted.
    So he went to a secluded hovel or shack outside of the village he lived in. He drew the figures as best he could from the book on his penis. Then he sat there in the dark and started saying, "Barda'a, Barda'a" again and again in the quiet of the night.
    Suddenly he heard a noise outside the door. His heart leapt with fear, excitement and hope all at once. Could this actually be Barda'a outside the door? He stood up and slowly opened the door and right there in front of his shack was a donkey saddle suspended in the air. 😂
    They say he was never the same after that night in the shack outside the village.

    Finally it makes sense now. In my childhood, there was a man of my mother's village could summon Jinn mostly for healing people from illness. The jinn was known to be good unlike Satan/evil-nature but little bit ill-tempered. As urban residents, me, my father & everyone else laughed hearing such things. We decided to witness the attempt. One of my aunt was infertile. Doctor said she may haven't give birth ever. Her father couldn’t bear it. He called that man to arrange a summoning in hope that if Jinn could help. Luckily we were there too. In the full moon. There was almost 15-20 people in my aunt's house locked inside including me & my parents. Completely dark. Not a single drop of light except few aromatic joss stick. One of my grand father was holding the man tightly so that he can not do tricks by himself. The man were supposed to recite some sort of verses for quite a long time. Although he told us before starting rituals that how the jinn will enter. Exactly that happened after few minutes. Something suddenly started walking on the roof. It was so heavy that the whole house was shaking. Than it feels like somebody threw a heavy stone. It fell just in the middle of us directly from the roof . Later we saw it was a huge rock but got puzzled that how did it invaded the roof & fell upon a place full of people but nobody got hurt! Thn we felt that the thing jumped onto the ground, opned the main door which was locked inside, took a chair & sat in the center of room. Remember it was completely dark. Well thn he gave Salam to everybody. I was like shivering after listening his voice. No human can have this kind of voice. It was nasally & too sharp. He was talking bengali but in different dialect which was not familiar to me. Than he calmly heard all the problems & questions whoever asking & replied accordingly. My mother, one who is fearless lady i have ever seen, was asking some questions that results are yet to come in near future. The jinn scolded her saying "we can not tell about prophecies. That power is not given to us. We are another species just like you made by Allah with a certain special powers." my another aunt had been trying hardly to see him in the dark. He noticed instantly. Said, "you tried to see me since the very first time. Can you bear the effect after seeing my avatar? If we are in hiding, that is for a good reason. So let us be." when he was gone, he took almost half of mann fish as his charge. After the ceremony, when the light came back, we were like numb. Couldn't find any loophole that could convice us that it was fake & staged. No third person could enter in the house territory. Even if anybody stays hidden in outside, how could he open the heavy main door which was locked inside. What is the explaination of the throw. How it fell through the roof! But the most interesting part is, my infertile aunt for whom the jinn was summoned is a mother of four children now. Later the jinn appeared again by the same ceremony. Gave her some rituals to follow & told to perform her prayer regularly.
    So this is how the jinn was summoned by that man. He might have chanting those verses. My nana told me that the summoner had some book which is forbidden. Sometimes he may recited the verses from The Qura'n in reverse (Nawjubillah). Nana said, although the man meant to help people but it is wrong & forbidden in Islam. No one is supposed practice such things like magic or summoning Jinn.

Also, you, as a non-Muslim and a non-Arab, have educated me about the power and value contained inside the Arabic Language and sentences of the Quran, you have honestly brought me closer to God and to my religion which is something that you’ll be given good deeds for and not forgotten on the day of judgement.

    To all those wondering, Yes in Islam we strongly believe in other beings like Djinns who can be either bad or good i nature. To take shelter or staying safe from any kind of evil, there are few Surah (verses) we are told by Allah and Prophet (pbuh) to recite, especially after early morning prayer and last prayer before we sleep. Here in Pakistan, we have extreme ignorance among various illiterate ppl who use islam and then practice magic. It is totally forbidden and can even place u out of the religion if one practices.

I mean, even in actual war you need an intel regarding enemy strengths and locations so you can counter, if not mitigate said enemy. Blind prevention measures such as censorship would suffice for the laypeople, but for those studying in pesantren (who are likely to be 'ulama), some knowledge is required, especially *why this Syamsul Ma'arif is dangerous*.
      Some 'ulama in Indonesia are often called for exorcism. Without a sample knowledge of sorcery and metaphysics from this book (let alone any other magic), how could they counter the metaphysical threat?

    The video I’ve been waiting for. I was warned about this book many times growing up, with one particular story I heard from my dad who owned a copy at one point in his college days. He said just reading it out loud would be enough to invite the worst of the jinn to the household, and mentioned something about the jinn following you for the span of your life. It terrified me, but captivated me for so long, and I always felt an inclination to read it or peruse any topics within that realm. I’m about the same age now that he was when he got the book. A couple months back, I managed to find myself an excellently preserved copy. I Couldn’t describe my giddiness when it finally arrived, a sense of strange achievement came over me when I held it, like I had been handed some powerful heirloom that I wasn’t meant to be holding. While I’m not fearful of much, and can be considered quite the skeptic, opening this book and finally reading it gave me a feeling that I hadn’t ever felt before, that wonderous, almost admiring sense of awe that you are truly reading something older than most things you recognize, while simultaneously giving a powerful feeling of dread that got to the point where I couldn’t continue past a few pages without looking up at my peripherals swearing the shadow at the very corner was moving. The book sits quite nicely among other old editions I have on my shelf, but I make it a point to rarely read it, and to only touch it when I absolutely need to. To this day I’m not sure if the feeling I felt is because of all the things I heard manifesting themself into imagination, or if everything I heard was indeed, true, but perhaps not all knowledge is meant to be learned yet, this being one of them.
    Thank you for your amazing work on your videos and your in depth research into the history of an area of the world that doesn’t get spoken about enough! I’ve learned more about my own history in regards to religion from you than from any teacher, please keep the videos coming
