The Ruling on Killing by the Evil Eye and the Rulings on Criminal Offenses

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person intentionally kills another person through the evil eye, do the rulings on intentional crimes apply to him?

Answer:
They say yes, if he confesses. If the one who casts the evil eye confesses that he is the one who affected him with the evil eye, then this is considered intentional killing. Therefore, they say that if it is established that the one who casts the evil eye kills with it, he is imprisoned until he dies. He is not allowed to go out among the people; he is kept in a place and is not allowed to go out at all until he dies. Yes.
