Treatment for sleeping through the Fajr prayer due to the evil eye
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a brother who complains. He says: May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh. I have been struck by the evil eye, and as a result, I am unable to get up for the Fajr prayer. Or I get up and go to the restroom, and I fall asleep there for a period that reaches thirty or forty minutes. I wake up and the prayer has been missed in the mosque, or the sun has risen. I feel that the time has been wasted from me, and I do not know what the solution or the treatment is. So advise us, Your Eminence the Shaykh.
Answer:
You must take the good in sleep. Do not stay up late. You must ask your Lord for well-being from this affliction. You ask Allah, for Allah says:Sunan Abi Dawud 3874Da'if (Al-Albani). So the woman takes the means. She contacts specialists and asks them about this illness. She asks her Lord for well-being. She is humble before Allah. She seeks healing. She sleeps early so that she does not remain weak at the time of the Fajr prayer. She does not stay up late. It is obligatory for her to sleep early so that she can get up for the Fajr prayer, and so that she can pray with the Muslims in the mosques. There is no power and no strength except with Allah.
