I was casually looking for Arab things to decorate my home with a hamsa to be exact and whatever else I could find. My home has a subject or color theme to it. My restroom is the beach, my kitchen is lemons, and my living room is Arab. To make my husband feel like he is in Palestine whenever he comes home is why I chose this theme. My search isn’t going so well. I have what is dark multicolored furniture that to me looks Arab but to my husband, “I don’t care. This is woman stuff.”, later he says the colors are good for an Arab look. This is the only help I have gotten and will get. I have no idea what looks Arab and what doesn’t. There isn’t a huge Arab population here so I can’t just go to a store and buy things.
Anyway, while on Ebay searching this came up. http://cgi.ebay.com/Haunted-Gypsy-10-GENIE-JINN-DJINN-MARID-EXTREME-BINDING_W0QQitemZ310034079581QQihZ021QQcategoryZ102514QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Why would anyone buy this and for $2,500!!!! The only thing I know about Jinns from reading other Muslim blogs is that they are evil and that’s all I need to know. I’m scared of anything ghost-like or satanic. There are only two things that scare me, mice and ghosts. Unfortunately I have come across a mice and nearly lost my mind. If I was the fainting kind I would have hit the floor. Thankfully, I have not met any ghosts but to my chagrin I met the last tenant that lived in the home I stay in now. She quickly let me know it is haunted. When she said haunted I told her that’s all I need to know. I now sleep with at least three lights on in the house when my husband is not here. My child is visiting family for spring break so I am all alone some nights. That’s where the other two lights come in at since my child is not here either. My husband works nights a few days a week. I know I am too old(not that old) to sleep with the lights on. LOL But if someone told you that I’m sure you might also. I am in the process of looking for a new place as I type!
Does anyone else have any jinn/ghost stories? And what do you guys think of the expensive jinns for sale on Ebay?
That thing on Ebay looks like a scam. Anyone dumb enough to spend that kind of money on something like that deserves to get ripped off.
Are you Muslim yet?
People are crazy…you’d have to be crazy to put a jin on ebay for sale but even crazier to spend money to buy one. The sad part is that somone will probably buy it.
Yeah, are you muslim yet? I’ve stopped by here several times recently expecting to see an update. I hope all is well in any event!
Hmmm… weird.
Wondering how things are going for you.
Umm Ibrahim
Subhanallah, the things people do for money
how weird, I wouldnt pay that amount for anything off ebay!
I’d like to point out something sister. I noticed you said that from what you know about jinns is that they’re evil. This is untrue. Djinns are like us, they have free-will. Like us there are good, and bad and even like us they have religions.
It’s just Djinns in general. The good ones keep away from humans and only stick around the most pious of people such as the scholars.
miss Alia,there are jinns both good and bad.there are jinns which are used in black magic to destroy people.there are good jinns which help people to fight the evil jinns.they have free will like humans.they eat ,marry,and die.they also have religion.
About ebay i can say that it can be scam or real.but if any one buys a jinn which is too costly he is a fool.there are people who are selling jinns at much lesser price.
