Nazar Utarne Ki Dua is recited by Muslims to seek Allah’s protection from the evil eye and ask for relief from its effects. Islam encourages believers to seek protection through authentic supplications, Quranic verses, and regular remembrance of Allah.
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ affirmed that the evil eye is real and taught supplications for protection and healing. Many families turn to Islamic duas to seek Allah’s help and protection for themselves and their loved ones.
Below, you will find the dua in Arabic, Roman English transliteration, and Hindi and English meanings, along with relevant Quranic verses and Islamic guidance for protection from the evil eye.
What Is Nazar in Islam?
Nazar, or the evil eye, is the harm that can reach a person through an envious look, or even an admiring glance not followed by a blessing. The Arabic word is “ayn”.
It is real in Islam, but it works only by the will of Allah. A person can cast it without meaning to, so the answer is never blame, but dua.
Nazar Utarne Ki Dua
Dua 1: Protection Taught by the Prophet ﷺ
Arabic
أُعِيذُكُمَا بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ وَهَامَّةٍ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ عَيْنٍ لَامَّةٍ

Dua 2: Ruqyah to Remove the Evil Eye
Arabic
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ، مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ، مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ نَفْسٍ أَوْ عَيْنِ حَاسِدٍ، اللَّهُ يَشْفِيكَ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ

English Meaning
In the name of Allah I recite over you, from everything that harms you, from the evil of every soul and every envious eye. May Allah heal you. In the name of Allah I recite over you.
Dua 3: Dua for Healing
Arabic
اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ النَّاسِ، أَذْهِبِ الْبَأْسَ، اشْفِهِ وَأَنْتَ الشَّافِي، لَا شِفَاءَ إِلَّا شِفَاؤُكَ، شِفَاءً لَا يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا
Transliteration
Allahumma Rabban nas, adhhibil ba’s, ishfihi wa Antash Shafi, la shifa’a illa shifa’uk, shifa’an la yughadiru saqama.
Hindi Meaning
ऐ अल्लाह, लोगों के रब, तकलीफ़ को दूर कर दे। इसे शिफ़ा दे, तू ही शिफ़ा देने वाला है। तेरी शिफ़ा के सिवा कोई शिफ़ा नहीं, ऐसी शिफ़ा जो कोई बीमारी बाक़ी न छोड़े।
English Meaning
O Allah, Lord of mankind, remove the harm. Heal him, for You are the Healer. There is no healing except Your healing, a healing that leaves no illness behind.
Use “ishfihi” for a male, “ishfiha” for a female, and “ishfini” when reciting for yourself.
Nazar Utarne Ki Dua in Quran
The Quran does not give one verse named as the cure for the evil eye, but the Prophet ﷺ taught that Surah Al Falaq and Surah An Nas are the strongest shield. Aisha and Abu Said al Khudri (may Allah be pleased with them) reported that he used to seek refuge from jinn and the evil eye until these two Surahs were revealed, and after that he held to them and left everything else (Tirmidhi).
Daily recitations that Muslims keep for protection:
- Surah Al Fatiha
- Ayat ul Kursi (Surah Al Baqarah 2:255)
- Surah Al Ikhlas, Surah Al Falaq and Surah An Nas, three times each in the morning and evening
Surah Al Qalam 68:51
وَإِن يَكَادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا الذِّكْرَ وَيَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ لَمَجْنُونٌ
Transliteration: Wa in yakadul ladhina kafaru la yuzliqunaka bi absarihim lamma sami’udh dhikra wa yaqulunna innahu la majnun.
Meaning: The disbelievers would almost make you slip with their eyes when they hear the Reminder, and they say, “He is surely mad.”
Many scholars, among them Ibn Kathir, mention this verse in connection with the evil eye, and Muslims commonly recite it for protection. No hadith fixes it as a set cure, so it should be treated as a recitation for protection and not as a replacement for the duas taught by the Prophet ﷺ.
The Story of Yaqub (Surah Yusuf 12:67)
Prophet Yaqub (peace be upon him) told his sons to enter Egypt through different gates. Several early scholars explained that he feared the evil eye on his many handsome sons. The verse also shows that taking precautions is not against trust in Allah, because he said that nothing can avert what Allah has decreed.
Balo Ki Nazar Utarne Ki Dua
People often ask for Balo Ki Nazar Utarne Ki Dua when hair suddenly falls or loses its health after being admired. There is no separate hadith for hair alone.
The same duas apply. Recite Dua 2 and Dua 3 together with Ayat ul Kursi and the three Quls, blow lightly over water or oil, and then drink the water or apply the oil. Blowing over water is a recognised form of ruqyah among scholars, though the Prophet ﷺ did not specify it for hair. Seeing a doctor for hair loss is also part of seeking healing.
Bacho Ki Nazar Utarne Ki Dua
Bacho Ki Nazar Utarne Ki Dua is best taken from the practice of the Prophet ﷺ with his grandsons. Recite Dua 1 over the child with the words “U’eedhuka bi kalimatillahit tammati…” and then blow gently on the child.
Parents can keep this routine:
- Recite the three Quls and Ayat ul Kursi in the morning and evening
- Recite Dua 1 before sleep and pass the hand over the child
- Say “Ma sha Allah, Barakallahu feeh” whenever the child is praised
Never hang objects around a child’s neck believing they stop harm. Protection comes from Allah alone.
Buri Nazar Utarne Ki Dua for Adults
For an adult, Buri Nazar Utarne Ki Dua is Dua 2, recited three times with the hand placed on the painful area or on the head. Follow it with Dua 3, then recite Surah Al Fatiha and the three Quls.
The Prophet ﷺ also taught the ruqyah of “Bismillah” three times on the place of pain, followed by seven times “A’udhu bi izzatillahi wa qudratihi min sharri ma ajidu wa uhadhir” (Muslim). It is a gentle addition for any pain linked to nazar.
How to Recite Nazar Utarne Ki Dua
Follow these steps for the best results:
- Make wudu if possible and face the qiblah.
- Begin with “Bismillah” and send salawat upon the Prophet ﷺ.
- Recite Al Fatiha, Ayat ul Kursi and the three Quls once.
- Recite the chosen dua three times with full attention and belief.
- Blow lightly on the person, or on water, and pass the right hand over the body.
- Ask Allah sincerely for healing and repeat for several days if needed.
When to Read This Dua
- Every morning and evening for daily protection
- Before sleep, especially for children
- When a person falls ill suddenly after being admired
- After seeing a person, a home or a possession that appears too perfect
- Before travel and before important work or business
What to Say When You Admire Something
The Prophet ﷺ taught that a person who sees something admirable should pray for blessing and not leave it unmentioned. He told Amir ibn Rabi’ah to say “Allahumma barik alayhi” (Ibn Majah).
Arabic: مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
Transliteration: Ma sha Allah la quwwata illa billah.
Meaning: What Allah wills has come to pass. There is no power except with Allah (Surah Al Kahf 18:39).
Saying these words closes the door to harm before it begins.
Prophetic Cure When the Source Is Known
If the person who cast the evil eye is known, the Prophet ﷺ taught that he may be asked to wash, and the water is then poured over the affected person (Muslim). He said, “If you are asked to wash, then wash.”
In practice this is rarely possible, so the duas above remain the main way for Nazar Utarne Ki Dua.
