A British imam has opened his doors to cameras to show what happens during an Islamic exorcism.

He allowed himself to be filmed performing a ‘ruqyah’ ritual on an unmarried woman at a mosque in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, to dispel myths about the practice.

The ceremony was one of thousands carried out every year in the UK where imams rid men and women of evil spirits or ‘jinni’ which they believe live inside them.

In the video a young Muslim woman dressed a in burqa and with her face covered is seeking help to rid her of spirits which she believes are caused by black magic.

The 29-year-old woman sought help claiming the curse was causing her a range of medical problems which she said conventional doctors could not cure. She said her symptoms included vomiting, pain in the womb, insomnia, headaches and back-pain, and poor memory.

She also said she was easily angered and would scream for no reason. In the video the woman dressed in a burqa can be seen rocking backwards and forwards as Imam Ayoub Tayeb chants verses from the Quran to banish the demonic entity.

She can be heard panting and retching as the imam at the Masjid Mohammed mosque shouts deafeningly into a microphone at the jinni.

He can be heard repeating ‘can you find God, can you find him?’ As Imam Ayoub shouts verses more aggressively at the jinni the woman, from Bradford, is seen fleeing to the other side of the couch – seeking to escape. She then screams out uncontrollably while thrashing around on a couch before picking up a nearby table.

At which point the imam spit spits holy water in her face to bring the jinni under control. Imam Ayoub, originally from Kurdistan, said: ‘She has black magic and the jinni that brought the magic is also in love with her. Mum, 22, found dead just days after posting: 'Goodnight world, I'm turning myself off'

‘But this is not real love as love does not cause pain and this Jinn has caused many ailments.

‘The information about the magic was given by the Jinni when I was speaking to it but it did not say who caused the magic.’ ‘We only operate in the healing and helping to cure them from these evil practices – but magic practicing is widespread. ‘A simple Google search would reveal how easy it is to buy or find a spell.’

He chanted verses from the koran saying ‘can you find God? Can you find him?’ (Picture: SWNS) The patient in this video is now following a home treatment plan and said to be feeling better – with many of her symptoms having disappeared.

The exorcism is one of around 3,000 performed by 42-year-old Imam Ayoub during the last three years. Tiny London house narrower than a train carriage on sale for £1,000,000 As well as serving the community in Sheffield patients come from far afield as Germany, Norway, USA, Sweden and Iraq. The imam said: ‘Most of our patients come from the Islamic faith. However we have also helped Christians, Sikhs, Hindus and atheists – we do not differentiate between religions or non-religion.

‘I treat unexplained illnesses that doctors cannot explain or cure such as period or menstrual issues or excessive behaviours such as gambling, drugs or alcohol.

‘We use a diagnosis in a way similar to what you may find at a doctor’s surgery. We list listing common symptoms in either jinn possession or magic and through those answers we can diagnose the problem by Allah’s will.’ Imam Ayoub learned his skills by watching others perform ruqyah and through reading.

He said: ‘I enjoy helping people – it is my passion and I enjoying serving God in this way. ‘I like using the Quran to heal and witnessing the power of the Quran gives me satisfaction – to heal and see people healed. ‘It can make me tired at times and very busy – continuous recitation can give me a sore throat.’

However the healer insists he has nothing to fear from the jinn. He said: ‘I only fear God and God is more powerful than the jinni he created so I believe God will protect me.

‘I protect myself by reading morning and evening supplications. ‘I pray five times a day with obligatory prayers and supplementary prayer and I also pray in the night when the world sleeps for God to protect me.’ An exorcism takes roughly an hour to perform – with Imam Ayoub charging a £60 fee which is used to fund the mosque. However he insists no-one is turned away as the service is often provided for free to help people.

If a Muslim exorcism worked, then the person won’t be a Muslim anymore.

If you cast a jinni out of a muslim, is that the same as rubbing a bottle? Do you then get wishes?

First wish: “Be valued”

Turned into a gold statue.

Second wish : “Be living”

Turned into a lettuce plant.

“Third wish?”

“No, I think I’ll quit while I’m ahead.”

Demons cannot cast out demons.

“Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls. And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul. (Luke 11:17-18, ESV)

I believe man love thursday is because on thursday women are to sleep alone to be visited by demons with which they have sexual relations. As a result men have sex with each other.

Ethno psychiatrists study this stuff. They say the negociation is that the jinn allows women to get married to a man, casting spells or possessing them, making them sick if they do not go with the woman and vice versa. During “possession” sessions ethno psychiatrists will talk to the “demon” and apply psychology to get a deal with them instead of full on exorcism.

Some consider it a coping mechanism with monogamy because out west a man’s interest in his wofe is often aroused when other men look at her. The concept of the third person is quite known in sociology too.

Similarly nowadays psychiatrists are against treating people with autism or schizophrenia, just managing and negociating their conditions.

Indeed, this is not exorcism but islamic witchcraft and negociation with demons. Only Christ can cast them out outright.

If they weren’t muslims, and therefore are insane to begin with, I’d be embarrassed for them for this absolutely lunatic behavior.

"‘I pray five times a day with obligatory prayers and
supplementary prayer and I also pray in the night when the
world sleeps for God to protect me.’ "

Yeah. I see it's done a lot good for you.
