2062. Ibn ‘Abbās narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “If there was anything that could overcome the Decree then the (evil) eye would overcome it, and when you are requested to wash (due to it) then wash.”[1] (Sahih) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] There is something on this topic from ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr. This Hadīth is [Hasan] Sahih [Gharib]. And the narration of Hayyah bin Hābis is a Gharib Hadīth. Shaibān reported it from Yahya bin Abī Kathīr from Hayyah bin Hābis, from his father, from Abū Hurairah, from the Prophet ﷺ. ‘Alī bin Al-Mubārak and Harb bin Shaddād did not mention “From Abū Hurairah” in it.

Arabic text

٢٠٦٢ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ خِرَاشٍ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وُهَيْبٌ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كَانَ شَيْءٌ سَابِقَ الْقَدَرِ لَسَبَقَتْهُ الْعَيْنُ»، وَإِذَا اسْتُغْسِلْتُمْ فَاغْسِلُوا. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو. وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ وَحَدِيثُ حَيَّةَ بْنِ حَابِسٍ حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَرَوَى شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ حَيَّةَ بْنِ حَابِسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ وَحَرْبُ بْنُ شَدَّادٍ لَا يَذْكُرَانِ فِيهِ: عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ.

    [1] See no. 3509 of Ibn Majah. The meaning is that the one suspected of casting the evil eye is requested to wash his body with water, and that used water that has come off of his body is caught in a container, then poured over the affected person from behind him.
