Evil eye is the invisible influence of gaze which perpetrate in a preferable thing resulting in monetary or physical loss etc. Nabi e Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam has taught Duas too as protection and remedy against it and one of which is to recite A’OOZU BI KALIMAATHILLAHITH THAAMMA MIN KULLI SHAITHANIN HAAMMA WA MIN KULLI AI NIN LAAMMA and blow upon oneself.
