The Trial of the Evil Eye and Supplication in the Depths of the Night
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We begin with the messages we have received. This sister, Umm Sa'ud, says: "Please remember that there is a woman who has been afflicted with the evil eye for a long time, O Shaykh. She has continued with treatment through ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), oil, and honey, and she has sought reward from Allah the Mighty and Majestic. She has been consistent in this, and then she had a dream. After it was interpreted, they said it is a trial of good. So, see good in yourself; see good in Allah for yourself. Please remember that she has a problem: when she makes du'a' (supplication) in the depths of the night, she says, 'I am unable to make du'a' for myself, and I get knots in my tongue.' And when I make du'a' for healing, there are phrases I use: 'O Lord, You know best. If my trial is good, grant me patience, fill my heart with obedience to You and Your pleasure with me, and magnify my reward. Is this considered part of the trial?'"
Answer:
She should rely on Allah. She should have good opinion of Allah the Mighty and Majestic. And she should seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan if she feels such a thing. She should seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan, because this may be a whispering from Shaytan. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
