Powerful Islamic Duas to Remove Nazar and Evil Eye

Powerful Islamic Duas to Remove Nazar and Evil Eye

Have you ever felt things suddenly go wrong for no clear reason?
Maybe your child fell sick right after people praised them.
Or your business started struggling just when it was doing well.

In Islam, we know that the evil eye (nazar) is real. It can harm a person, their health, their wealth, and even their happiness.
But Allah has not left us unprotected. He has given us strong duas and supplications to remove nazar and protect ourselves from the evil eye.

In this blog, we’ll talk about:

  • What nazar (evil eye) is in Islam
  • Signs that you may be affected
  • Powerful Islamic duas to remove nazar
  • Simple daily practices for protection
  • Let’s start by understanding what nazar really is.

    What Is Nazar (Evil Eye) in Islam?

    In Islam, the evil eye is called “al-‘ayn”. It happens when a person looks at someone or something with jealousy, envy, or even excessive admiration, and this look causes harm by the will of Allah.

    The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

    “The evil eye is real…”
    (Hadith – Sahih Muslim)

    This shows that nazar is not a superstition. It is something real that can affect:

  • Your health
  • Your children
  • Your marriage
  • Your work or business
  • Your peace of mind
  • But remember: nothing can harm us except by Allah’s permission. So the best way to deal with nazar is to turn back to Allah with sincere duas.

    Common Signs of Nazar or Evil Eye

    There is no specific medical test for nazar, but some common signs can include:

  • Sudden sickness with no clear reason
  • Frequent headaches or extreme tiredness
  • Restlessness, anxiety, or sudden sadness
  • Continuous failures after earlier success
  • Children crying a lot for no reason
  • Breakage, loss, or damage happening again and again
  • Of course, we should still seek medical treatment and practical solutions. But along with that, we should also use Islamic duas for protection from evil eye.

    Most Powerful Duas to Remove Nazar and Evil Eye

    These duas are taken from authentic Islamic sources. You can read them for yourself, your children, your spouse, or your home.

    1. Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Naas (The Best Protection)

    The last two chapters of the Quran, Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Naas, are called Al-Mu’awwidhatayn – the verses of protection.

    The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite them for protection from:

  • Magic
  • Evil eye
  • Jinn
  • All kinds of harm
  • You can do this simple routine daily:

  • Recite Surah Al-Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq, and Surah An-Naas three times in the morning and three times in the evening.
  • Blow lightly into your hands and wipe over your body.
  • Do the same for your children or loved ones.
  • This is a powerful Sunnah for nazar and evil eye protection.

    2. Ayat-ul Kursi (Verse of the Throne)

    Ayat-ul Kursi (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:255) is one of the strongest verses for protection.

    The Prophet (ﷺ) said that whoever recites it in the evening will be protected until morning, and whoever recites it in the morning will be protected until evening.

    You can:

  • Recite Ayat-ul Kursi after every fard (obligatory) prayer.
  • Recite it before sleeping.
  • Recite it over yourself or your family if you feel affected by nazar.
  • It acts like a spiritual shield against evil eye, jinn, and shaytan.

    3. Dua for Protection from Every Evil

    One of the most famous duas for protection from nazar and all harm is:

    Arabic:
    أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ

    Transliteration:
    A‘ūdhu bikalimātillāhit-tāmmāti min sharri mā khalaq

    Meaning:
    “I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created.”

    You can:

  • Read this dua three times in the evening.
  • Recite it for your children before they sleep.
  • Say it when entering a new place, house, or area.
  • It’s short, simple, and very powerful.

    4. Dua the Prophet (ﷺ) Used for Hasan and Husayn

    The Prophet (ﷺ) used to make this dua to protect his grandsons, Hasan and Husayn, from nazar and shaytan:

    Arabic:
    أُعِيذُكُمَا بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ وَهَامَّةٍ وَمِنْ كُلِّ عَيْنٍ لَامَّةٍ

    Transliteration:
    U‘īdhukumā bikalimātillāhit-tāmmati min kulli shayṭānin wa hāmmatin wa min kulli ‘aynin lāmmah

    Meaning:
    “I seek protection for you in the perfect words of Allah from every devil, poisonous creature, and every harmful eye.”

    This is an excellent dua for children.
    You can recite it:

  • Over your kids in the morning and evening
  • When they seem unusually fussy, scared, or sick
  • Before they go out or sleep
  • 5. General Ruqyah Dua for Nazar and Illness

    The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite this when someone was sick or affected:

    Arabic:
    بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ، مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ، مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ نَفْسٍ أَوْ عَيْنٍ حَاسِدٍ، اللَّهُ يَشْفِيكَ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ

    Transliteration:
    Bismillāhi arqīka, min kulli shay’in yu’dhīka, min sharri kulli nafsin aw ‘aynin ḥāsid, Allāhu yashfīka, bismillāhi arqīka

    Meaning:
    “In the name of Allah, I perform ruqyah for you, from everything that harms you, from the evil of every soul or jealous eye. May Allah cure you. In the name of Allah, I perform ruqyah for you.”

    You can read this:

  • Over yourself if you feel affected by nazar
  • Over someone who feels unwell due to evil eye
  • While gently placing your hand on the area of pain (if appropriate)
  • How to Use These Duas to Remove Nazar

    Duas work best when done with ikhlas (sincerity) and tawakkul (trust in Allah). Here’s a simple method you can follow if you suspect nazar:

    Step-by-Step Ruqyah for Nazar

  • Make wudu (ablution).
  • Sit in a clean, quiet place.
  • Recite:
  • Surah Al-Fatiha
  • Ayat-ul Kursi
  • Surah Al-Ikhlas
  • Surah Al-Falaq
  • Surah An-Naas
  • Blow lightly into your hands and wipe over your body.
  • Recite the ruqyah dua: Bismillāhi arqīka… as mentioned above.
  • Repeat this process daily, especially in the morning and evening.
  • Think of it like taking daily vitamins—but for your soul. You may not “see” the protection, but over time, you feel calmer, safer, and more at peace.

    Daily Habits to Protect Yourself from Evil Eye

    Along with duas, certain habits can help protect you from nazar:

  • 1. Say “MashaAllah” and “BarakAllahu feek”
    When you admire something, say phrases like:

  • “MashaAllah” (What Allah has willed)
  • “BarakAllahu feek” (May Allah bless you)
  • This helps stop jealousy and protects from evil eye.

  • 2. Keep Some Blessings Private
    Not everything needs to be shown on social media.
    If Allah gives you a blessing—like a new house, car, or job—be grateful, but don’t show everything publicly.
  • 3. Morning and Evening Adhkar
    Make it a habit to recite:

  • Morning and evening duas
  • Ayat-ul Kursi
  • Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, An-Naas (3 times each)
  • These are like a daily shield against nazar and shaytan.

  • 4. Stay Away from Envy and Jealousy
    Sometimes we worry about others giving us nazar, but we forget that we, too, can cause it.
    Purify your heart. When you see someone blessed, make dua:
    “Allahumma barik lahum” – “O Allah, bless them.”
  • Trusting Allah: The Heart of Protection

    At the end of the day, all protection is from Allah alone. Duas, ruqyah, and Quranic verses are just the means He has given us.

    If you are struggling with nazar, remind yourself:

  • Allah sees your pain.
  • He hears your dua—even the silent ones.
  • No harm can stay if Allah removes it.
  • Use these Islamic duas to remove nazar and evil eye regularly. Be consistent, patient, and hopeful. Protection and healing may not always come instantly, but they do come with sincere faith and effort.

    Final Thoughts

    Nazar is real, but it is not stronger than Allah.
    With Quran, Sunnah, and sincere duas, you can:

  • Remove nazar
  • Protect your family
  • Bring peace back into your life
  • If you feel affected, start today.
    Recite the duas above, especially Surah Al-Falaq, Surah An-Naas, and the ruqyah duas.
    Make them part of your daily routine, just like eating, sleeping, or working.

    May Allah protect you and your loved ones from every evil eye, seen and unseen.
