The evil eye was mentioned in both Quran and Hadith, so there is no denying it is real. So the person who is affected by it must seek Allah’s protection. In this article, we will go through the Dua for evil eye protection.
The Evil eye is also known as ‘Al-ayn’ “العين ” in Arabic. It is the harm or misfortune transmitted from one person to another person out of jealousy or envy. And It can be intentional or unintentional.
The Evil eye could happen since we live in a world where many people deal with stress, anxiety, and mental and physical strains. These kinds of people may sometimes be jealous of the ones who live a happy and stress-free life and they may cast the evil eye.
Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: “The evil eye is real, and if anything were to overtake the divine decree (al-qadar) it would be the evil eye.” [Muslim]
And in another one, he said: “The evil eye kills and makes the camel enter a pot, (i.e. has an amazing effect).”
The Holy Quran also confirms the evil eye through various verses. One of them is “and from the evil of an envier when they envy.”- Quran [113:5]
