(تَأْثِيرُ ٱلْحَسَدِ)
(Effect of the evil eye)
Hadith 4432
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْعَيْنُ حَقٌّ» وَنَهَى عَن الوشم. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Abu Huraira told that God’s messenger said, “The influence of the evil eye is true,” and forbade tattooing. (It would seem from this tradition that tattooing was used as a protection agains; the evil eye.) Bukhari transmitted it.
