Post by: Adil Husain on April 04, 2013, 02:57:28 PM

Peace be with you ,
Dear forum members , i want to know what 'blowing on knots' mean.
Some translators has taken it as witchcraft/magic/secret arts others have translated it as 'the one who complicate the simple by tying knots.

For me blowing on knots sounds like a superstitious act. It is a common practice in many south Asian muslims to read verses of Quran and blow on someone's face , water , food , etc with good intention.

What could blowing on knots possibly mean in the light of Quran ?
