The cure for the Evil-Eye is also one of them.
If Allah's name is invoked whole-heartedly and the job told by Him is
performed heart and soul, every worry will be removed by the grace of Allah. The article on the cure of Evil-Eye was
incomplete for several weeks. It will be completed by Allah's will, today. Lo, study a few cures for the Evil-Eye.
Refuge With Allah
I seek refuge with Allah. Seeking refuge with Allah through His mighty words is the most important cure for the Evil-Eye. A
few refugic supplications have already been mentioned. Today, more supplications are going to be stated. Keep it in mind
that many supplications for seeking refuge have been mentioned in the Hadiths.
"I seek refuge with Allah through His words from the wickedness of all the creatures." (Al-Muslim)
This supplication should be recited thrice in the mornings and evenings.
"I seek refuge with Allah through His words of which no pious or wicked can escape from the wickedness of any thing
that He created and spread; and from the wickedness of the things that came down from the sky and descend it; and from
the wickedness of the things that spread over the earth and are generated from it, and from the wicked of the subversions
of the day and the night; and from the wickedness of those who come at night save those who come with goodness of the
All-Merciful." (Zaad-ul-Ma'ad P:133)
There is a tale written in Musnad-e-Ahmad almost similar to this supplication. One night, the Satans descended from
the mountains and valleys and attacked the Holy Prophet . They wanted to trouble him with the help of the flames of
fire. All of a sudden, Hazrat Jibrail came down and taught him this supplication. He recited this supplication. All the
Satans ran away and their fire was extinguished.
After noting down these refugic supplications, Allama Ibn-e-Qayyim writes.
Only those know the benefits of these supplications who have tried it. He also knows how greatly we need these
supplications.
These supplications protect against the Evil-Eye and thus the reciter remains procured from Evil-Eye. If the Evil-Eye
has already worked, they end up its efficacy. The efficacy of these supplications increases due to the power of Emaan,
strength of the heart and Tawakkul of the reciter because these supplications are like the ammunition which becomes as
effective as skilled, powerful and mighty the person is who operates it. (Zaad-ul-Ma'ad P:135)
So, make these supplications your routine with full certainty and attention.
Incantations of Hazrat Jibrail
(1) It is reported in Al-Muslim:
Hazrat Jibrail came to the Holy Prophet and said, "O Muhammad ( ) , Are you feeling pain?" He said, "Yes." At
this, Hazrat Jibrail recited the following supplication.
"I blow incantations with the name of Allah against every thing that troubles and the wickedness of every eye or the
eye of the envier. May Allah cure you! I blow incantations over you with the name of Allah."
(2) It is reported in Al-Muslim:
Hazrat Ayesha says that whenever the Holy Prophet fell ill, Hazrat Jibrail would blow incantations over him
with the help of the following supplication?
"I seek help with the name of Allah. He will better you and cure you of every disease and (will cure you) of the envy of
every envier and the evil-eye of everyone who casts evil-eye."
Sobhan Allah! This is the supplication of Hazrat Jibrail with which he would remove evil-effects of evil-eye. With the
help of these traditions, Allama Nov-vi has proved that there is no evil in blowing incantations.
A Mighty Cure For the Evil-Eye
It is written in Zaad-ul-Ma'ad:
Hazrat Abu Ubaidulah(RA) was on Hajj or Jihad journey riding a very nice camel. One of his journey companions was a
man who used to cast evil-eye. Anything upon which he would cast evil-eye went out of order or ended up. The companions
said to the "Sheikh" to protect his camel from the evil-eye of that person. The Sheikh said, "He can cause no harm to my
camel." When the evil-eyer knew this, he remained in search of a chance as to when the Sheikh went away his camel. As
soon as he got the chance, he cast evil-eye at the camel and it fell down. When the Sheikh came to know, he searched him
out and recited the following supplication.
No sooner did the Sheikh recite this supplication than the eyes of the evil-eyer came out, the camel was cured and
stood up. (Zaad-ul-Ma'ad P: 138 V-IV)
A Quranic Cure For the Evil-Eye
Recite the last two verses of the Surah Al-Qalam for seven times at the pure water and blow incantations each time.
The patient should drink this water in nine draughts and before taking every draught he must recite . Then he
should put the rest of water in a pail or tub, pour some more water into it and run it at the entire body. Even the strictest
evil-eye will be cured. This incantations can be blown over animals even. The people who mostly fall prey to evil-eye, should
recite these verses for seven times daily and blow incantations over their bodies.
A Masnoon Supplication For Removing Evil-Eye
It is written in Hisn-e-Haseen:
The man who is affected by evil-eye, should remove it with the following saying of the Holy
Prophet:
With the name of Allah! O Allah remove the hotness and coldness and trouble and pain of this evil-eye.
Then he should say:
"Stand up with Allah's order." (Hisn-e-Haseen P:231)
The Supplication To Cure the Evil-Eye Cast at the Animal
It is written in Hisn-e-Haseen:
If an animal is under the spell of evil-eye, recite the following supplication four times in the right nostril and thrice in
the left nostril and blow over it.
"No fear, remove the trouble and the disease, O the Lord of the people. Cure it. You are the only Curer. No one save
You can remove any trouble and pain." (Hisn-e-Haseen P:213)
Protectin From One's Own Eye
This traditions is reported in Munsad-e-Ahmad and other books of Traditions:
"Anyone of you who sees his brother, his own self or anything from his property that seems him good, should pray for
his blessings because effect of evil-eye is a fact. (Musnad-e-Ahmad, Zaad-ul-Ma'ad)
It becomes clear that evil-eye does not affect others or one's own self due to the blessings of supplications.
Allama Tazry Writes:
"When you see anything of your own or the members of your family or any good thing of others or any good state, you
should say
"O Allah, bless it with even more blessings." (Hisn-e-Haseen P:220)
The man who fears of his own evil-eye at himself or at others, he should remove the wickedness of evil-eye through
these words.
"O Allah, bless it with blessings."
When Aamir bin Rabia (RA) cast his evil-eye at Hazrat Sahl bin Hanif (RA), the Holy Prophet said: Why did you not
pray for his blessings? (Zaad-ul-Ma'ad P:135 V:IV)
Hence the man who is attracted by his nails, or by his face while looking into the mirror or some of his trait or habit
appeals him, should at once pray for blessings. In the same way, he should do the same when he finds the good traits in his
children or other people. .....
If he inserts the following words also to make his supplication more powerful, it will be very
beneficial:
It is said about Hazrat Urwa (RA) that when he looked at an attractive object or went to the gardens, he would
say:

evil-eyer should take a bath and throw the water of his bathing at the person upon whom he cast his eye. Allama Ibn-e-
Qayyim has written in detail about the benefits of this cure. He has also said that the man who suspects it, does not get
benefit from it. (Zaad-ul-Ma'ad P:136, V-IV)
Its another situation can also be that he evil-eyer should observe ablution and should throw the water poured from
ablution at the person who is affected by his evil-eye.

blessings upon the earth as they are in the sky. Forgive us for our sins and mistakes. Your the Lord of the pious people.

The situation in Kashmir is again very intense. The resolute people have again come into action. Martyrdoms occur
every day. A prominent leader of the Freedom Movement Sheikh Abd-ul-Aziz has also offered sacrifice. He remained
procured when he was the fighting commander but was killed with the bullet shot of the Polytheists when he came into
Politics. The time of death is, no doubt, pre-determined. Death in Jihad does not come before time. On the other hand, the
Polytheists of Jammu have come upon Satanism to the core. "Muslim Killing Disruptions" in Punch, Doda and Kishtwara are
going on. How strange country is India! "Muslim Killing Disruptions" occur there under the patronage of the government
whereas no "Hindu Killing" disruption has ever occurred in Pakistan. All the readers of the Alqalam are requested to keep an
eye at the situation in Kashmir and give a proof of "Islamic Awareness" and "Islamic Brotherhood" and pray for the Muslims
and Jihad Movement there. Particularly, they should pray for the oppressed Muslims of Punch, Kishtwara and Doda because
they are under very oppressive oppressions whereas the negligent readers of our country are involved in the dirty game of
politics. They do not recall their oppressed Muslim brothers. O Allah, bless the Pakistanis with pious Muslim rul
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: “The Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) used to seek refuge with Allaah for al-Hasan and al-Husayn. He said: ‘Your father [i.e., Ibraaheem]
used to seek refuge with Allaah for Ismaa’eel and Ishaaq with these words :
A’oodhu bi kalimaat Allaah al-taammah min kulli shaytaanin wa haammah wa min kulli ‘aynin
laammah
(I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allaah, from every devil and every poisonous reptile, and from every bad
eye).’”(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, Ahaadeeth al-Anbiyaa’, 3120).
With regard to the meaning of laammah (translated here as “bad”), al-Khattaabi said: “What is meant here is every
disease or harm that a person may suffer such as insanity or mental disturbance.”
It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed that Jibreel came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said:
“O Muhammad, are you ill?” He said, “Yes.” He said ,
“Bismillaahi arqeeka min kulli shay’in yu’dheeka, min sharri kulli nafsin aw ‘aynin haasid Allaahu
yashfeek, bismillaahi arqeek
(In the name of Allaah I perform ruqyah for you, from everything that is harming you, from the evil of every soul or
envious eye may Allaah heal you, in the name of Allaah I perform ruqyah for you).” (Narrated by Muslim, al-Salaam,
4056)
