Abstract
 
The goal of this article is to initially assert that belief in evil eyes maintains an age-old history among different nations, and people made used of different tools and particular plants to face and counter the consequences of spells, cast by evil eyes. This article discusses the different dimensions and aspects of this common belief in the view of Farsi classical works in verse. We realized that poets rendered a clear picture of community upon statement of this belief, while also creating pictures and redoubling the beauty of their poems with its assistance. The poets referred to many means for removal of spells, cast by evil eyes, while also elaborating on some of these common customs and traditions. In fact, they create astounding pictures in their works upon the usage of these age-old and all-encompassing beliefs.
