Idols from the neighbour's home being visible while performing salaah
Q: My husband and I are moving into a new apartment insha-Allah. When we viewed the place we did not notice that Hindu idols were placed in a small area and is visible from the window of both rooms. After signing the contract we then noticed it and feel uncomfortable about it especially since it’s visible in the direction of qiblah. Our real estate agent does not wish to ask the owners to move it as previously Muslims stayed here with no problem. I am not sure what to do in this situation. Your advice will be appreciated.

Repelling the feeling of the presence of jinn in one's house
Q: We've been affected by sihr and bad eyes for years and its been just over 5 weeks that I am reciting Surah Baqarah weekly in our house... The house is huge so I recite sometimes from the rooms and sometimes central.
What I've noticed is strange.. Cupboards are just starting to break, I feel dizzy and sick with terrible aches. My husband cannot stay alone, he feels jinn presence. I always hear these cupboards shut in almost every bedroom every night and I take it these jinns are there whilst we are sleeping.
We've tried everything from a learned aalim treatments; spraying water to playing the adhaan recorder. What else can I do and why is this still happening? Please advise further.
