Has the evil eye afflicted this person who changed from having passion for Islam and performing duties to becoming lazy in prayer and turning away from religion, along with hating life and feeling nonexistent?
The person mentioned needs supplication (Du'a) and advice, by explaining the importance of prayer, as abandoning it is considered disbelief (kufr), in accordance with the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Between a man and disbelief or shirk (polytheism) is the abandonment of prayer." Also, neglecting one's family is a dereliction of trust, in accordance with His (the Almighty) saying: "O you who have believed, protect yourselves and your families from a Fire" (Quran 66:6), and the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Each of you is a guardian and each of you is responsible for his flock." It is advised to adhere to supplications (Du'a) and remembrance (Dhikr). If he is afflicted in his mind, then he can resort to ruqyah shariyyah (Islamic exorcism/incantation), while being cautious of fortune-tellers and charlatans.
