Here combined with a traditional symbol of protection, The Hamsa, or Hand of Fatima.

This symbol represents blessings, power and strength, and is seen as a potent deflector of The Evil Eye (a malicious stare believed to cause illness, death or general bad luck). The Hamsa symbol often combines the powerful defensive symbol of’ Nazar Boncuğu or ‘Evil Eye’ for this very reason.

These images were often painted, or hung upon the walls, or doorways of houses, especially those belonging to expectant mothers. The hand can be depicted with the fingers spread apart to ward off evil, or closed together to bring good luck. Fatima’s hand is a powerful talisman for good luck and one of the most popular amulets for protection. It is believed that a house protected by Fatima’s Hand will never catch fire.
