Q:
I have a sister who has been affected by the evil eye and someone has proposed to her. Is it obligatory on me to tell him that she has been affected by the evil eye?
If I do not tell him, is this regarded as deceiving him? Please answer me in writing as there are many similar cases in our village. As-salamu ‘alaykum (May Allah’s Peace be upon you)
A:
It is obligatory on the Waliy (a legally accountable person acting for a woman regarding marriage) to explain to a suitor any defects or illnesses that the woman is suffering from, if the man is not aware of this, so he can be well-informed. (Part No. 18; Page No. 63) Hiding this information from him is deceiving him. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
“Anyone who deceives us is not one of us.”
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
