Nazar

[Killi_Feyzo]

Salamun aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakhatu,

I Hope you all have a blessed and a successful Ramadan

I have Never belived in nazar and such things, but when i asked my imam he Said that this really exists
For example if someone is looking good or Allah (swt) gave him alot of risk and somebody gets envious and nazar him Bad luck can Hit him
For example He lose His Risk or He will get ill and His Beauty disappears
Can something like this Happen?
And are there any duas the Prophet (SAS) Said to protect himself from this?

Barakullah feekum

Wa-alaykum-us-Salaam wa'Rahmatullaahi wa'Baraktuh,

Brother you can refer to the attached PDF of the book 'The Jinn and Human Sickness'. For the portion regarding envy then navigate to page 250 of the PDF document (not what is printed on the page). The chapter is from page 250 - 268.

Insha'Allaah I think that will answer your questions (and generally the whole book is a good read). Hope this helps.

Oh it exists alright. Underestimating it is probably a bad idea.

The PDF recommended above is an excellent source and would shed more light on the subject but some basic surahs we're told to recite against it are Nas and Falaq.

I read a few hadith related to this issue::

Book 50, Number 50.1.1:
Yahya related to me from Malik that Muhammad ibn Abi Umama ibn Sahl ibn Hunayf heard his father say, "My father, Sahl ibn Hunayf did a ghusl at al-Kharrar. He removed the jubbah he had on while Amir ibn Rabia was watching, and Sahl was a man with beautiful white skin. Amir said to him, 'I have never seen anything like what I have seen today, not even the skin of a virgin.' Sahl fell ill on the spot, and his condition grew worse. Somebody went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and told him that Sahl was ill, and could not go with him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to him, and Sahl told him what had happened with Amir. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Why does one of you kill his brother? Why did you not say, "May Allah bless you?" (ta baraka-llah) The evil eye is true. Do wudu from it.' Amir did wudu from it and Sahl went with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and there was nothing wrong with him."


Volume 4, Book 55, Number 590:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet used to seek Refuge with Allah for Al-Hasan and Al-Husain and say: "Your forefather (i.e. Abraham) used to seek Refuge with Allah for Ishmael and Isaac by reciting the following: 'O Allah! I seek Refuge with Your Perfect Words from every devil and from poisonous pests and from every evil, harmful, envious eye.' "

Surah falaq talks about it and,recite the two an nas and al falaq as sister Shahnazz pointed out.They are called al mu'awwidhatayn translated as "verses of refuge".
According to Tafsir ibn Kathir, it has been reported from Abu Sa'id(raa) that Muhammad used to seek protection from the evil eyes of the jinn and mankind. But when the Muawwidhatayn were revealed, he used them (for protection) and abandoned all else besides them. At-Tirmidhi, An-Nisai and ibn Majah recorded this.
Brother ditta has provided excellent resource mashaAllah,go
through it brother.

jazakallahu khairan

i didnt read out if we should be worried about this
is there anything to worry?
or should we just put our trust in Allah (swt)
and make the prescribed duas?

Barakallahu feekum

 

[ShahnazZ]

The latter.

We shouldn't live our lives constantly looking over our shoulders for it, but we should take the necessary precautions to safeguard ourselves against anything Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala has warned us about.
