Nazre Bad Ki Dua: Complete Islamic Protection from Evil Eye

Here We Provide Islamic prayers and practical methods to protect yourself and your family from the evil eye. You’ll receive complete Arabic duas with meanings, specific prayers for children and babies, Quranic verses for protection, and answers to common questions about spiritual safeguarding.

What Is Nazre Bad and Why Does It Matter?

The evil eye occurs when someone’s envious or admiring gaze affects another person, often unintentionally. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The evil eye is real, and if anything were to overtake the divine decree, it would be the evil eye” (Sahih Muslim).

This isn’t superstition it’s a recognized phenomenon in Islamic teachings that requires both spiritual protection and practical measures.

The Most Powerful Nazre Bad Ki Dua

The primary supplication taught by the Prophet (peace be upon him) for seeking Allah’s protection is:

Arabic: أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ

Transliteration: “A’udhu bi kalimatillahit-tammati min sharri ma khalaq”

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

This comprehensive dua protects against all forms of harm, including the evil eye. Recite it three times in the morning and evening for continuous protection.

Disclaimer: All duas and supplications mentioned in this article are sourced from the Quran and Sahih Hadith collections. While these spiritual practices are part of Islamic tradition, they should complement not replace medical treatment when physical symptoms appear. For serious health concerns, consult qualified healthcare professionals alongside your spiritual practices.

Nazre Bad Ki Dua Bachon Ke Liye (For Children)

Children are particularly vulnerable to the evil eye because people frequently admire their beauty, intelligence, or health. The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to seek protection for Hassan and Hussain (his grandsons) with this specific supplication:

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

Transliteration: “U’eedhukuma bi kalimatil-lahit-tammati min kulli shaytanin wa hammatin wa min kulli ‘aynin lammah”

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

How to use this dua:

• Place your hand gently on your child’s head
• Recite this prayer three times
• Blow softly over their body
• Repeat morning and night for best protection

Nazre Bad Ki Dua for Babies

Newborns and infants need special spiritual shielding. Parents should regularly recite protective verses over their babies:

Ayatul Kursi (Verse of the Throne):

Arabic: اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ

Transliteration: “Allahu la ilaha illa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyum, la ta’khudhuhu sinatun wa la nawm, lahu ma fis-samawati wa ma fil-ard…”

Meaning: “Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth…” (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:255)

Recite the complete Ayatul Kursi over your baby after each prayer time. You can also write it beautifully and hang it in the baby’s room.

Additional Protection for Infants:

Arabic: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

Transliteration: “Bismillahil-ladhi la yadurru ma’asmihi shay’un fil-ardi wa la fis-sama’i wa Huwas-Sami’ul-‘Aleem”

Meaning: “In the name of Allah with whose name nothing is harmed on earth nor in the heavens, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing”

Recite this three times over your baby, especially before sleep.

Nazre Bad Ki Dua in Quran

The Quran provides the strongest spiritual protection. Two specific chapters are particularly powerful:

Surah Al-Falaq (Chapter 113)

Arabic: قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ وَمِنْ شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ وَمِنْ شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ وَمِنْ شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ

Transliteration: “Qul a’udhu bi Rabbil-falaq Min sharri ma khalaq Wa min sharri ghasiqin idha waqab Wa min sharrin-naffathati fil-‘uqad Wa min sharri hasidin idha hasad”

Meaning: “Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak From the evil of what He has created And from the evil of darkness when it settles And from the evil of the blowers in knots And from the evil of an envier when he envies”

The final verse directly addresses protection from envy, which is the root of the evil eye.

Surah An-Nas (Chapter 114)

Arabic: قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ مَلِكِ النَّاسِ إِلَٰهِ النَّاسِ مِنْ شَرِّ الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ الَّذِي يُوَسْوِسُ فِي صُدُورِ النَّاسِ مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ

Transliteration: “Qul a’udhu bi Rabbin-nas Malikin-nas Ilahin-nas Min sharril-waswasil-khannas Alladhi yuwaswisu fi sudurin-nas Minal-jinnati wan-nas”

Meaning: “Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind The Sovereign of mankind The God of mankind From the evil of the retreating whisperer Who whispers into the hearts of mankind From among the jinn and mankind”

Recommended Practice: Recite Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Nas together three times each morning and evening. Blow into your cupped palms after each recitation and wipe over your body, starting from your head.

Daily Protection Routine

Consistency brings the strongest shield. Here’s a practical daily schedule:

Morning (after Fajr):

• Ayatul Kursi (1 time)
• Surah Al-Falaq (3 times)
• Surah An-Nas (3 times)
• “A’udhu bi kalimatillahit-tammati min sharri ma khalaq” (3 times)

Evening (after Maghrib):

• Repeat the same sequence

For children specifically: Add the Prophet’s dua for Hassan and Hussain before they sleep.

When Someone Praises You or Your Belongings

The moment someone compliments you, your child, or your possessions without saying “MashAllah,” immediately recite:

Arabic: مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ

Transliteration: “Ma sha’Allah, la quwwata illa billah”

Meaning: “What Allah has willed, there is no power except with Allah”

This acknowledges that all blessings come from Allah alone and provides instant protection.

Ruqyah: The Comprehensive Healing Method

If you suspect someone has been affected by the evil eye (symptoms include sudden illness, unexplained anxiety, or loss of blessings), perform Ruqyah:

1. Recite Surah Al-Fatihah (7 times)
2. Ayatul Kursi (3 times)
3. Last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah (1 time)
4. Surah Al-Falaq (3 times)
5. Surah An-Nas (3 times)
6. Blow into water and have the affected person drink it
7. Blow into olive oil and apply it to the affected area

Physical Remedies Alongside Spiritual Ones

Islam encourages combining spiritual protection with practical measures:

Black Seed (Kalonji): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Use this black seed regularly, because it is a cure for every disease except death” (Sahih Bukhari). Mix black seed with honey and consume daily.

Zamzam Water: Drink Zamzam water after reciting protective duas over it. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said Zamzam water is for whatever purpose it is drunk.

Keeping Privacy: Don’t overshare your blessings on social media or in public. The Prophet Yusuf’s (Joseph) father advised him: “Do not relate your vision to your brothers, lest they arrange a plot against you” (Quran 12:5).

Important Warnings and Considerations

Avoid these common mistakes:

• Don’t rely solely on physical amulets (ta’wiz) without understanding their content. If they contain Quranic verses, they’re permissible, but the real protection comes from your connection with Allah.
• Never attribute power to the amulet itself only Allah provides protection.
• Don’t delay medical treatment if physical symptoms appear. The Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged seeking medical care alongside spiritual remedies.
• Avoid excessive paranoia. Not every misfortune is from the evil eye. Sometimes Allah tests us to strengthen our faith.

The Reality of Protection: Faith Over Fear

While these prayers are powerful, your genuine trust in Allah matters most. The duas work because they connect you to the ultimate Protector, not because they’re magical formulas.

The Prophet (peace be upon him) taught us: “Nothing can harm you except what Allah has decreed for you” (Sahih Bukhari). This should bring you peace, not anxiety.
