Does reciting Surat al-Anbiyaa’ protect us from evil eye?
Qn29: If a person recites Surat al-Anbiyaa’ in the evening or they recite it seven times, does it protect them from the evil eye?
Ans.29: It is not allowed for any Muslim to protect himself in the morning, in the evening or at the time of sleeping except with that which has been revealed by the Messenger of Allaah sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam and to this day I have never heard or learnt that Surat al-Anbiyaa’ is of the verses which have been revealed to protect oneself from the evil eye or other than this. What we have learnt from the Sunnah regarding protecting oneself with the Qur’aan is that one reads Ayat-al-Qursi [Surat-al-Baqarah:255] or one can also read the two last verses of Surat-al-Baqarah where Allaah says "the Messenger (Muhammad ) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allâh, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all).Allâh burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. "Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maulâ (Patron, Supporter and Protector, etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people."} (Al-Baqarah 2:285:286).
Also, one can recite Surat al-Ikhlas, Surat al-Falaq and Surat an-Naas (the last three surahs of the Qur’aan) as well as Surat al-Faatihah, the opening chapter of the Qur’aan. So these are the surahs from the Qur’aan which were revealed in the Sunnah to protect oneself from the evil eye. And there are many other supplications that we know from the Prophet sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam such as the saying, ‘Bismillaahi lathee laa yadhurru m’aa issmihi shay’un fil ardhi wa laa fi samaa’ wa huwa as-Sami’ul ‘Aleem’ (In the Name of Allaah with Whose name nothing in the Earth, nor in the Heavens can cause harm, and He is the Hearer, the Well-Knower.) If one says this three times in the morning, he will be protected until the evening, and if one says this three times in the evening, he will be protected until the morning. I advise the questioner and all other Muslims, male or female, to read Sahih al Kalim at-Tayyib (The Authentic of the Good Sayings) by the Imam, the Allamah, the Muhaddith of this time, Shaykh al-Albani rahimahullaah whose book is derived from the Imam al-Islaam, Shaykh Ibn Taymeeyah’s book Kalim at-Tayyib (rahimahullaah) – so you may go to either book.
