A--- Mjumbe wa Allah ﷺ amesema: "Athari ya jicho baya ni ukweli." (Bukhari na Muslim)

A--- Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) says: "The effect of an evil eye is a fact.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

Imepokewa kutoka kwa Umm Salamah (Allah amridhie): Kwamba Mtume ﷺ aliona katika nyumba yake msichana ambaye uso wake ulikuwa na doa jeusi. Akasema: "Amepatwa na jicho baya, basi mtibuni kwa ruqyah." (Bukhari na Muslim)

Narrated Umm. Salamah (May Allah be pleased with her): That the Prophet (Peace be upon him) saw in her house a girl whose face had a black spot. He said. "She is under the effect of an evil eye, so treat her with a Ruqyah.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

Imepokewa kutoka kwa `Aishah (Allah amridhie): Mtume ﷺ aliniamuru mimi au mtu mwingine nifanye Ruqyah (iwapo kuna hatari) kwa ajili ya jicho baya.” (Bukhari na Muslim)

Narrated `A'ishah (May Allah be pleased with her): The Prophet (Peace be upon him) ordered me or somebody else to do Ruqyah (if there was danger) from an evil eye.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

Yeye (ﷺ) anasema: "Hakuna Ruqyah inayoruhusiwa isipokuwa kwa jicho baya au homa." (Imam Ahmed)

He (Peace be upon him) says: "No Ruqyah is allowed but for an evil eye or fever." (Imam Ahmed)

Hadithi nyingine zinazoenda katika mwelekeo huo zinapatikana miongoni mwa Hadithi sahihi. Lakini tunapaswa kujua kwamba jicho baya haliwezi kuwa na athari isipokuwa Allah Mtukufu akitaka. Kwa hilo, aya ifuatayo ilifasiriwa na wengi wa wanazuoni wetu waliotangulia: {Na hakika wale waliokufuru wangekaribia kukutelezesha kwa macho yao (kwa chuki) wanaposikia Ukumbusho (Qur'an)}. (Al-Qalam, 51)

Other narrations that go in the same vein can be found among the authentic Hadiths. But, we should know that the evil eye can not be effective unless Allah the Almighty wills. With this, the following verse was interpreted by many of our earlier scholars: {And verily, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes (through hatred) when they hear the Reminder (the Qur'an)}. (Al-Qalam, 51)
