The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to seek refuge with Allah for himself, and reading the Book of Allah, especially the Mu’wwadhatayn (the last two Surahs of the Quran, al-Falaq and al-Nas), Surat al-Fatihah, and Ayat al-Kursiy [al-Baqarah 2:255], is the most powerful means of seeking refuge available to the Muslim.
Without a doubt, if you continue to recite the adhkar (dhikr) for morning and evening, as well as the adhkar for going to sleep and other adhkars, you will be protected from the evil eye, as it will act as a fortress for you, by Allah’s grace.
How to Protect Yourself From The Evil Eye
To protect yourself from the evil eye, you should:
- Get close to Allah;
- Read the Quran;
- Make a lot of du’a;
- Recite the adhkar, and
- Use ruqyah as it is one of the greatest remedies that the believer should use regularly.
In the event that you are afflicted by the evil eye, you should use the treatments recommended in the Shari’ah, which are:
Reciting ruqyah. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “There is no ruqyah except in the case of the evil eye or fever.” al-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud.
Jibril (peace be upon him) used to do ruqyah for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and say,
“Bismillahi arqika min kulli shayin yudheeka, min sharri kulli nafsin aw ‘aynin hasid Allahu yashfeek, bismillahi arqeek (In the name of Allah I perform ruqyah for you, from everything that is harming you, from the evil of every soul or envious eye may Allah heal you, in the name of Allah I perform ruqyah for you).”
Asking the person who has put the evil eye on another to wash, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) commanded ‘Amir ibn Rabi’ah to do in the hadith quoted above. Then the water should be poured over the one who has been afflicted.
With regard to taking his waste, such as his urine and stool, there is no basis for doing so; the same applies to taking any of his belongings.
Rather what is narrated is that which is mentioned above, washing his limbs and washing inside his garment, or likewise washing inside his headgear and garments.
Signs of Evil Eye
As for the symptoms of being affected by the evil eye, Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Aziz al-Sadhan (may Allah preserve him) said: “If it is not a real sickness, then the symptoms may take the following forms:
- Headaches that move from one part of the head to another;
- Yellow pallor in the face;
- Sweating and urinating a great deal;
- Weak appetite;
- Tingling,
- Heat or cold in the limbs;
- Palpitations in the heart;
- Pain in the lower back and shoulders;
- Sadness and anxiety;
- Sleeplessness at night;
- Strong reactions due to abnormal fears;
- A lot of burping,
- Yawning and sighing;
- Withdrawal and love of solitude;
- Apathy and laziness;
- A tendency to sleep;
- Health problems with no known medical cause.
These signs or some of them may be present according to the strength of the evil eye or the number of people who put the evil eye on others.” Adopted from IslamQA
