What is to be done if the one who casts the evil eye fears informing the afflicted person or conveying his ablution water to him, for fear of a great evil occurring? Is supplicating for the afflicted person sufficient, or is the one who casts the evil eye sinful for not giving him the remnants of his ablution water? How is the water poured on the afflicted person without his knowledge? Is it sufficient for the afflicted person to pour the water on himself?

This answer explains how an envier (the one who casts the evil eye) should act if they fear the anger of the envied person (the one afflicted by the evil eye). They are asked to subtly ensure that the water used for their ablution reaches the afflicted person, so the latter can bathe with it. The water can be poured over the head of the afflicted person and as much of their body as possible from behind, or the afflicted person can pour the water over themselves while unclothed, whether they are aware of it or not. It is mentioned that the Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded the pouring of water on Sahl, and it suffices to pour water over the afflicted person; it is not necessary for it to cover their entire body. This has been narrated in Al-Muwatta, Al-Bayhaqi, Ahmad, and An-Nasa'i. Furthermore, benefit is hoped for through the envier's supplication for the envied in their absence, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "The supplication of a Muslim for his brother in his absence is answered." The answer clarifies that the envier incurs sin if they refuse to perform ablution for the one they afflicted with the evil eye, because the command to wash indicates obligation. The envier is compelled to perform ablution if they refuse, especially if there is fear of the afflicted person's demise.
