			know that that's real and you should be cared maybe you should watch out before you go back in your
car. Or Michigan maybe you should be you know, take whatever precaution because that's real
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			last one, you waved your hands I'll give you. Yes.
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:43
			You still have your hand up good. So as soon as something negative happens, people tend to blame it
on Nazar all the evil eye. So my question is, what is the meaning of the evil eye in the Quran?
Compared to the knowledge we have from our culture's?
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:45
			You're not going to like it.
		
00:00:48 --> 00:01:31
			I'll tell you now, I am not convinced that we have interpreted the common the common interpretation
of the Hadith involving the evil eye is interpreted properly. I know help, in my opinion, Allahu
dadada. And I know help is referring to jealousy can have really bad consequences. But not that if I
stare at someone with enough laser focus, they will fall down the stairs or, you know used to you
developed. I developed really bad allergies yesterday, because the first day somebody didn't say
mashallah, when they saw this on my PowerPoint presentation, no, because if I was really that
powerful, then every time a country elects a President that the country doesn't like, everybody
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			should just get together for iron party, and just
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			and that they should just
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			start melting as they speak.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:52
			And though nobody gave, like nobody received more ain than the prophet of allah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, right?
		
00:01:53 --> 00:02:12
			The thing with the idea of, you know, our you, you were you were you dressed up for a wedding, and
then you look really nice, but you didn't say mashallah, or somebody else didn't say mashallah, you
will worse okay, you said you like mashallah Baraka Allah and sha Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah,
Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah will help you.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:52
			But when you got to the wedding, somebody in a corner was like, Oh, she looks nice, some old lady.
And she didn't say Mashallah. And somebody else pulled her the other direction. And now all of a
sudden, God has changed and now you know, you're just going to develop the skin rash that's going to
make like, boils on your forehead and you're like, that old lady. I got it. I got it. No, that's in
my opinion, that is superstition. This is this is this is the kind of religion that people before
Islam followed superstitions, and then they have to find ways of ending the curse. Right, then they
have to go to someone who can end the curse for them. And the end the curse was kind of a spiritual
		
00:02:52 --> 00:03:19
			pharmacy, where the guy will say, Oh, yes, I must contact the spirits and you have this demon on
you, you'll have this evil eye on you, you have this you know, magic spell on you and I will give
you this you know, mixed, drink this and then go around the circle three times and then do the hokey
pokey and then it will go away, but it will charge you $50 or something, you know, this this whole
nonsense. This was the way that people used to buy religion. Right and Islam came were in the Quran
is this design
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:56
			where is it and then people extrapolated from high up like Wayne got into the NACA formula use the
Kona cabbie I'm sorry him lemma semi with dhikr that believer the disbelievers would they they stare
at you so hard that if they could they would make you fall off your slip steps from the way they
look at you when they hear the Quran, meaning Allah is describing the hatred inside their eyes, and
actually having it has it ever happened to you that you walk into a classroom and office and lobby,
a restaurant, whatever. And you can see the hatred in somebody's eyes. You could see that's the new
hub, meaning watch out for people like that. Don't just assume, Oh, they must just be having a bad
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:56
			day.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:26
			Know that that's real, and you should be cared maybe you should watch out before you go back in your
car. Or Michigan, maybe you should be you know, take whatever precaution because that's real, you
know, facial expressions are a giveaway. That's what that would be my read of, of that phenomenon.
But I don't believe that just because somebody has hazard of you that the risk Allah has written for
you is taken away because of their hazard. Because no one has more hazard on you than shaitan.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			And you still have it as
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			an if Assad got rid of this, then I think all of us would be starving.
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			Either we're killing someone or somebody's killing us.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:49
			You understand? So it's addiction. It's an exaggerated extreme that has gone too far and we've
turned on religion to the superstitious stuff. And it's just not something's true to the spirit of
the Quran. For my opinion.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:05:00

as many resources for Muslims to give them
