Playing a recording of the Quraan Shareef in the house

Q: For a very long time we used to hear noises in the house at night. We would hear people walking up and down the stairs, down the corridor, chairs moving and the bathroom taps open at night. Even some that would visit could hear the sounds. We would get sick very often but every time we went to doctors and did various tests it would all be clear. Nobody could tell us what was wrong with us.

From the beginning of the year we started playing Quran Sharief in the house in the background 24/7. Ever since, we haven't had any issues Alhamdulillah. We stopped hearing the sounds and our health has been better. Alhamdulillah Is this disrespect to the Quran Sharief?

Wazifah for repelling bad thoughts before sleeping

Q: My grandmother who is a widow has asked me to ask this particular question to you:

She has asked for any wazaif or any specific azkaar to be recited as she is saying that before bedtime in the night she gets some bad thoughts. She said "aise taise galat galat khayaal aate rehte hai"...I don't exactly know what she means by it but she regularly recites prayers and azkaar and Quran before bedtime. Kindly help with some azkaar/wazaaif.

Why didn't Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) go into the details of sihr?

Q: I know that learning sihr is not allowed in Islam but what is the ruling on learning about sihr? There is a ruqya course on YouTube whose ustadh has an ijaza in the 6 books of hadiths and is an experienced raaqi but he goes into a lot of details on the kufrs the magician commits, how sihr is performed, and tells the meanings of the numbers in taweez and how the magicians use numbers to calculate the taweez. He has also read actual magic books (e.g. Shams al ma'arif, etc. for "informational" purposes maybe). We also come to know that the magicians say the name, "Baal" and blow on the knots. Even the footage of an actual magician is shown when he was being exposed. If this was allowed, why didn't the prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) go into so many details? And of course, he tells us how to destroy the taweez and perform ruqya. I find it very iman boosting as it shows that Islam is the truth but am I sinning by watching these videos?

Protection from black magic

Q: My mother suffered with asraat a few years back. Alhumdullilah she got cured back then with the help of Quran. That time the raqi did say that there was black magic done on my mother but he didn't say who did it. I have observed my phupo (dad's sisters) that she only visits our place on full moon days like purnam or something like that...

I don't know what it is but it makes me worried for my parents. We, as a family have seen hell this long. I don't want to think anything evil about my phupo but it just flashes in my mind... Please help me with any dua or anything that could make me get rid of this feeling.
