My wife had wrapped my son wrist with black thread, according to her that it will keep him away from evil eye, I quoted her one of PBUH hadith from isalmqa but she said it is on amulets, Tawiz and not on a piece of thread that is there with intention of 4 quls so he doesn't get eye evil.
The problem is that every time I tell her something which her mother or anyone else in family is doing, she wanna prove me wrong or his brother try to be a scholar. How can I encounter this?
Tell her that prophet never practiced such thing. Instead The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) Said:
"In his Khutbah the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to praise Allah as He deserves to be praised, then he would say: 'Whomsoever Allah (SWT) guides, none can lead him astray, and whomsoever Allah sends astray, none can guide. The truest of word is the Book of Allah and best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. The worst of things are those that are newly invented; every newly-invented thing is an innovation and every innovation is going astray, and every going astray is in the Fire.....'

There are many authentic Dua for protection against evil eye. This is one of them:
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “The Prophet (ﷺ) used to seek refuge for Hasan and Husain and say: A’udhu bi kalimatil-lahil- tammati, min kulli shaitanin wa hammah, wa min kulli ‘aynin lammah (I seek refuge for you both in the Perfect Words of Allah, from every devil and every poisonous reptile, and from every evil eye).’ And he would say: ‘Thus Ibrahim used to seek refuge with Allah for Isma’il and Ishaq,’ or he said: ‘for Isma’il and Ya’qub.’”

Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to seek protection against the evil of jinn and the evil eyes till Surat Al-Falaq and Surat An-Nas were revealed. After they were revealed, he took to them for seeking Allah's protection and left everything besides them.
