Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

I am a religious person. Back home I have been raised Roman Catholic but since 12 years I converted myself to Islam, All thanks to Him the All Mighty. I always believed in another world and that we were not alone in this world. From childhood till now. The Islam acknowledge the other world which is parallel with our world, the name Allah chose for them are Djinn. You have good ones but also very bad ones.

A few months ago I was in bed sleeping and suddenly I woke up catching my breath that sounded very loud… and I went straight up sitting in my bed and next to me there was a big, tall man standing in black with a hat. I was not that afraid when I saw him… and I know I saw him and after a few seconds he was gone.

I started to ask people around me who it could be what I have been seeing. I know about the Djinns but I had this feeling that this was not one of them or maybe it was. The reason why I was wondering was because I did not feel that scared.

No Hadith I could find so I started to search the internet and I landed here on this side which opened my eyes because there he was the man I have seen next to my bed. The Shadow people… and also the Islam was mentioned in this topic.. further going down I saw a drawing of the Hat man…. Alhamdulillah I found the guy.

But I am still not sure if I should be pleased with this man or not. I have seen him 4 times after my first meeting… still not afraid knowing Allah is with me all the time.

In my life have seen things, heard things and sometimes I do feel things as well. When I was little I heard footsteps nearby my bedroom, no one to see, heard voices next to my bed, no one to see… Sometimes when my Imaan (little of the spiritual site) is not that good I have seen red eyes in the room, hallway of my house.

One day I finished my Fadjr salah (morning pray) and I had one light one, which only can be swifted on/ off by touching it! went of… things which are not on the same spot anymore.

But not always bad things I remember one morning that I did not want to get up for my morning pray (sometimes they are very early!) and I just wanted to turn over to get more sleep. I felt a hand touching me on my shoulder and shake me a Little like it wanted to say get up, get up… so I got up.

I am glad I did not experience really scary things like in all the other stories, not yet you never know what will happen in the future.

I always seek my refuge in Allah by saying little prayers, sayings of the Qur’an or once a week I do Ruqiyah (cleaning yourself and your house by listening to certain Surah’s).

For the rest I am aware of the others.

I am sorry that is not a story but more a relief of my heart that I am not the only one who knows, sees and feels.
