Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: In our country, the owners of farms hang signs on the outside of their farms that have white dots on them, with the intention of warding off the evil eye. He asks: What is the ruling on this action, and is it obligatory to denounce it?
Answer:
This is an invalid practice, and nothing wards off the evil eye except the remembrance of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), seeking refuge in Allah, and the morning and evening adhkar. As for the white, black, or red dots, they do not ward off anything. Yes.
