Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Recently, a treatment for the evil eye has become widespread. It consists of sand mixed with water, and the patient continues to drink it. Then, after seven days, this water is replaced. Does this have a basis?
Answer:
I do not know of any basis for this. The treatment for the evil eye from the jinn is through the prescribed ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) with the Qur'an and supplications. As for the sand, we have not known it to be a treatment. Yes.
