Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us and there was a child with us who was ill. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is wrong with him?" We said: We suspect he is affected by the evil eye. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you not recite ruqyah (incantation) for him against the evil eye?"
