Wiping Doors and the Ground to Remove the One Who Casts the Evil Eye

The questioner:
Shaykh, it is established that some of those afflicted with the evil eye in our neighborhood, such as a girl who was an outstanding student, her mother went to the school and wiped the mats with a cloth and wiped the threshold of the entrance and exit, then she wetted it or put it in water and gave it to the girl to drink, and she was cured by the permission of Allah. It is as if some of our scholars say this is not what should be done.

The Shaykh:
By Allah, the known ruling is that this is not permissible. Wiping the ground may include impurities and may harm her.

The questioner:
If it is, Shaykh, I mean.

The Shaykh:

The questioner:

The questioner:
But wiping his car and wiping his door and wiping the door handle.

The Shaykh:
By Allah, I do not know of this except as a practice of the common people.

The questioner:
But the Shaykh rebukes him for it.

The Shaykh:
Impurity may be involved in this, because wiping roads and doors may result in some impurity.

The questioner:
And if our Shaykh sees someone wiping the car and wiping the door.

The Shaykh:
By Allah, I do not know. The outcome, you know the outcome, if Allah wills.

The questioner:
By Allah, we do not know, but.

The Shaykh:
They say, they say it is a tested practice of the common people. May Allah make it.

The questioner:
He wipes his sandals, he washes the sandals, for example, to find a skin or

The Shaykh:
A small girl entered her mother’s house, and a woman from our neighbors came in while the child was outside in al-Dal'am. The mother was washing her, and she had just finished nursing her. The girl started screaming and wouldn’t stop. I asked them, “Who came in?” She said, “So-and-so came in,” or “So-and-so did not come in.” The girl kept screaming, and that was all; we didn’t want anything else. I told them to go to her and wipe her. I looked at her and said, “Count the stones and wash her face and hands, and that will suffice for us from her.” They did so. He said, “In the morning, your hand—may Allah reward you with good—and in the morning, the house was fine, and Allah cured her immediately. Thirty. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, and if mother.

The questioner:

The Shaykh:
This is it, their wiping of the mosques and roads, there is no unknown one.

The questioner:
It is suitable that he feels around like this.

The Shaykh:
I do not know a basis for it, I do not know a basis for it. I have this, it does not speak.

The questioner:
They said, come on. Because this may

The Shaykh:

The questioner:

The Shaykh:
Look at the success.

The questioner:
Belief in another matter.

The Shaykh:
It suffices to remove the impurity, then he has a mat. The Prophet said, if he does not have a mat, he said, “She wipes their traces; he was only commanded to wash.”
