What Is Nazar (Evil Eye) in Islam?
In simple words, nazar means harm caused by someone’s envy, jealousy, or even intense admiration. It’s not always intentional. Sometimes a person may praise you, your child, or your success without saying “MashaAllah,” and it can still affect you.
The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said that the evil eye is real. That means it can affect:
Have you ever noticed things suddenly going wrong just when everything seemed perfect? A child suddenly falling sick after being praised a lot? Or work, business, or relationships collapsing out of nowhere? Many people connect these experiences to nazar.
But Islam never leaves us helpless. Allah has given us duas for protection from nazar and practical steps to stay safe.
