Ask Allah to Bless What You Admire

إِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْ أَخِيهِ، أَوْ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ، أَوْ مِنْ مَالِهِ مَا يُعْجِبُهُ، فَلْيَدْعُ لَهُ بِالْبَرَكَةِ، فَإِنَّ الْعَيْنَ حَقٌّ

Idhā ra’ā aḥadukum min akhīhi, aw min nafsihi, aw min mālihi mā yuʿjibuhu, fal-yadʿu lahu bi-l-barakah, fa-inna l-ʿayna ḥaqq.

If one of you sees in his brother, himself or his wealth something he admires, let him pray for blessing for it, for the evil eye is real.

Say a prayer such as “Allāhumma bārik” rather than merely admiring something. This is preventive prophetic guidance.

How to use: Say “Allāhumma bārik” when admiring a person or blessing.
