Woman feeling that her colleague at work is jealous of her

Question

I have a friend at work who is friends with another colleague that is extremely jealous of me and is always putting nazr on me, I've read duas for protection especially when around that person but found it best to also stay away. I tried speaking to my friend and she feels as a Muslim she cannot abandon another Muslim even if they are not good company and she likes being around that person because of the things that person spoils my friend with.

Is it wrong Islamically for me to disassociate myself from my friend because of this?

Answer

It is not at all desirable for a woman to venture out of her home. The outdoor life has its own problems and they can only be fixed when the woman returns to her place which is the home. Trust in Allah Ta`ala and follow the sunnat. May Allah Ta`ala take good care of you and protect you from all forms of evil and problems.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
