Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
How does a person know that he is afflicted with the evil eye, or sorcery, or possession?

Answer:
Allah knows best. A person should not have obsessive thoughts, thinking that everything is the evil eye, everything is sorcery, and everything is madness. No, there are many diseases, and there are many types of diseases. So he should resort to beneficial treatment through permissible supplications and permissible medicines, rely upon Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and believe that healing is from Allah and that these are means which Allah has permitted and by which one is treated. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) is near and responsive.
