Muwatta Malik 1717
The Evil Eye
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم دَخَلَ بَيْتَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَفِي الْبَيْتِ صَبِيٌّ يَبْكِي فَذَكَرُوا لَهُ أَنَّ بِهِ الْعَيْنَ - قَالَ عُرْوَةُ - فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Sulayman ibn Yasar that Urwa ibn az-Zubayr told him that the Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), entered the house of Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet, (ﷺ). There was a child weeping in the house, and they told him that it was from the evil eye. Urwa said, "The Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said, 'Why do you not find someone to make an incantation to protect it from the evil eye?' "
