Going to One Who Treats the Evil Eye by Gazing and Holding the Hand

Question:
The questioner says: There is a person who treats people by holding the hand of the sick person or any part of his body, and opening his eye and looking into it. Based on this, he informs him of all the diseases he has, without the patient telling him. Is it permissible to go to him?

Answer:
The issue of inferring illness by holding his hand or arm, or looking into his eye, to indicate that he is afflicted—there is no harm in that. Signs of what is in doubt appear; signs of the illness appear. However, informing him of every disease merely because he looks into his eye or holds his arm is an exaggeration.
This is an exaggeration, and it has no reality. If he infers from holding his hand that he has a specific disease, or from his eye that he has a specific, defined disease, that may be the case. But informing him of all the diseases he has—that is an error. And this is a claim. Some sorcerers, some false prophets, and some greedy people who want to take money deceive people with such matters. Yes.
