7-Day Plan

7-DAY PROTECTION FROM THE EVIL EYE PLAN

In the Quran, the evil eye is treated as a real phenomenon; Surah Al-Qalam's 51st verse points to it explicitly. This seven-day plan aims to turn surahs and verses on the evil eye and general protection into a lasting morning-and-evening routine, spread across a week rather than one day. Day one begins with the evil eye's place in the Quran. Days two and three are devoted to Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas — together known as the two Refuge Surahs, teaching refuge from outer and inner evils. Day four turns this pair into the 'Three Quls' with Surah Al-Ikhlas, which conveys monotheism. Day five focuses on Ayat Al-Kursi, which most intensely conveys God's protection. Day six combines the four learned elements into a single morning-and-evening routine. Day seven closes the week with a repetition of the two Refuge Surahs and Al-Baqarah's last two verses (Amanar-Rasulu). Throughout this plan, the point emphasized is that the source of protection is not an object but a sincere consciousness of taking refuge in God. Repeating the routine for seven days turns this consciousness into a natural part of daily life, rather than something confined to a moment of anxiety.

The Evil Eye's Place in the Quran

Day 3

Surah An-Nas

Surah An-Nas teaches seeking refuge in God from inner whisperings and, together with Al-Falaq, forms the two 'Refuge Surahs'. Read them back to back to bring together outer and inner protection.

Day 4

Surah Al-Ikhlas

Surah Al-Ikhlas, which conveys monotheism, completes the group of three (the 'Three Quls') recommended to be read three times morning and evening together with the two Refuge Surahs (Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi).
