Jabir bin 'Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) granted sanction to the family of Hazm for incantation in mitigating the effect of the poison of the snake, and, he said to Asma' daughter of 'Umais: What is this that I see the children of my brother lean? Are they not fed properly? She said: No, but they fall under the influence of an evil eve. He said: Use incantation. She recited (the words of incantation before him), whereupon he (by approving them) said: Yes, use this incantation for them.
