Protection from the evil eye

Question

We are worried about my nephew being affected by evil glances. What should be recited and what actions can we do to prevent it?

Answer

Recitation of the Manzil is extremely effective for protection against Sihr, Jinn, the evil eye etc. However, one may also recite verses 51 and 52 of Surah 68 seven times and blow over the youngster. This will be extremely effective in protecting him from the evil eye.
