The Evil Eye and Its Treatment in the Shari'ah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, does the evil eye affect a person, and what is the treatment in your view in light of the Shari'ah?

Answer:
The authentic hadith states that the evil eye is a reality, and if anything were to precede destiny, it would be the evil eye
that could overcome the Decree, then the evil eye would overcome itسابق القدر لسبقته العين
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2059Sahih (Darussalam)
. So the evil eye affects a person if Allah the Exalted wills it, and it is treated with dhikr (remembrance of Allah), and also with istighsal, by having the one who cast the eye wash or take a bath, then taking his washwater and pouring it on the one afflicted by the evil eye. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and bless you.
