[Machine] There was an old lady who used to take some of this beetroot and grind it with barley, and we would eat from it. We would neither have lunch nor dinner except after Friday prayer. 1089 Abdullah narrated to us, he said: This is a book that my father wrote for me in his handwriting, for protection against fear. And I (Abdullah) copied it. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah, which no righteous person or sinner surpasses, from the evil of what descends from the sky, and from the evil of what rises therein, and from the evil of what is scattered in the earth, and from the evil of what comes out of it, and from the evil of the trials of the night and day, and from the evil of every obstinate tyrant except the one whom hatred touches. O Most Merciful! Then he wrote again: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from His anger, His punishment, and the evil deeds of His slaves, and from the whisperings of devils, and that they come near. O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and all that they shade, and Lord of the seven earths and all that they carry, and Lord of the devils and all that they lead astray. And he mentioned something that he learned from the Ruqyah, and I heard him saying to the beetle, "May the enemies of Allah be dispersed and the splendor of Allah be exalted." I think he said, "And may the enemy of Allah be humiliated." Abu Abdur Rahman Abdullah said, my father said, and some of this speech is from Abu Nadr.
