意思
The belief in the 'evil eye' affecting success.
文化背景
It is common to see a 'Göz muncuğu' (blue eye bead) pinned to a newborn baby's clothes to prevent them from 'coming to the eye'. The belief is identical to Azerbaijan. The 'Nazar Boncuğu' is the most famous symbol of this belief and is found in almost every home. The 'Hamsa' or 'Hand of Fatima' is often used alongside the eye symbol to ward off the same negative energy described by 'Gözə gəlmək'. Similar beliefs exist among Kazakhs and Uzbeks, often involving smoke from the 'Adraspan' (rue) plant to cure someone who has 'come to the eye'.
Always say Maşallah
If you compliment someone's child, house, or health in Azerbaijan, always follow it with 'Maşallah' to show you don't intend to give them the evil eye.
Don't brag too much
Bragging is seen as an invitation for 'gözə gəlmək'. Be humble about your achievements.

常见问题
10 个问题No, it can be for anything—animals, cars, businesses, or even a beautiful cake you baked.
Yes! If you look in the mirror and admire yourself too much without saying 'Maşallah', people believe you can 'gözə gəlmək' yourself.
They are 99% interchangeable. 'Gözə gəlmək' is the state of being affected, while 'Göz dəymək' is the action of the eye hitting you.
While it has roots in religious traditions, it is used by everyone regardless of their level of faith. It's more of a cultural habit.
You say 'Biz gözə gəldik' (We got the evil eye).
Not at all. It's usually a compliment because it implies the person or thing was so good/beautiful that it attracted envy.
Culturally, people suggest washing your face with cold water, praying, or burning rue (üzərlik).
Never. It always refers to a negative outcome (illness, breakage, failure).
Rarely. It's mostly a spoken idiom. In formal writing, you'd use 'uğursuzluq' (failure) or 'bədbəxt hadisə' (unfortunate event).
Not everyone 'believes' it literally, but almost everyone uses the phrase as a cultural idiom.
