Question:
He says that the evil eye has no effect unless it is accompanied by envy. Is this correct?
Answer:
The evil eye that acts as a barrier may be due to envy, or it may be due to some surprise or astonishment at something, by the permission of Allah. It may come from the eye of an envious person, or it may come from a person whose soul is pleased with that thing and who considers it great, without any envy.
