The Evil Eye is Real?

In this episode of The Speaking Quran (Ep. 33), we explore verses 67–68 of Sūrah Yūsuf, uncovering timeless wisdom for our modern world.

• What are the Islamic etiquettes of travelling?
• How should we prepare—spiritually, financially, and emotionally—before a journey?
• What does the Qur’an teach about the evil eye, caution, and protection?
• How do these lessons connect to our digital lives and the risks of social media oversharing?

We reflect on the story of Prophet Ya‘qub (Jacob) advising his sons, the balance between precaution and tawakkul (trust in God), and the reality of the evil eye in both classical and modern contexts.
