Question:

Salaam Alaikum In the subcontinent, Shia community people (especially women) have a concept of "NAZAR Lagna", which they interpret as a kind of jealous/cursed view of their fellow persons. It is assumed that this can cause certain types of problems ranging from minor illness, financial loss, deterioration in health, or even huge loss such as death etc. There are a few methods in different regions, which are practised to ward off the bad omen of "NAZAR". Often this is described as a kind of Islamic ritual (as more religious people do this). Please explain this from the Islamic perspective. wassalam

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Assalam wr wb
Bad eye (Nazar e Bad) is possible and it is mentioned in Quran in Sura Falaq and other verses.
Protection from bad eye is possible through reciting Quran especially Sura Falaq and Sura Naas and Ayatul Kursi.
Dua is also very effective in protection from every harm.
Wassalam.
