Question:

I had a question about Manzil, what is its origin and its purpose?

Answer:

The Manzil is popular in [the Indian Subcontinent] and read as a wazifa and hirz for protection.

The Kandhlawi family would give a lot of importance to it and it was a custom of the family to teach it to the women and children. It is helpful for protection from jinns, satanic whisperings, black magic, and all types of calamities.
