Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

Praise be to Allah Who has guided you. We ask Him to grant you further success and guidance.

The matters you mentioned appear to be ordinary things that naturally happen to many people. Therefore, our advice to you is not to give them any attention or concern yourself with them, and not to open the door to obsessive thoughts about having been affected by magic or anything similar, as this can be very harmful.

Instead, make a habit of supplication and perform ruqyah for yourself and for those you love. Ruqyah is beneficial for illnesses, magic, and other afflictions, whether they have already occurred or have not occurred.

Allah Knows best
