Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a) is reported to have said: whenever you see a diseased or defected person, repeat this saying three times inaudibly, without letting him hear you. If you do so, you will not be affected by that disease or defect.
Text and Translation
Whenever you see a diseased or disabled person, recite this 3 times inaudibly, without letting him hear you:
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِىْ عَافَانِىْ مِمَّا ابْتَلَاكَ بِهٖ وَلَوْ شَاۤءَ فَعَلَ
ALHAMDULILLAAHIL LAZEE A'AFAANEE MIMMAB TALAAKA BIHI WA LAW SHAAA-A FA-A'L
Praise be to Allah, Who has kept me well from what He has afflicted you with — and had He willed, He would have done so [to me too].
Another tradition gives this form:
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِىْ عَافَانِىْ مِمَّا ابْتَلَاكَ بِهٖ وَفَضَّلَنِىْ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلٰى كَثِيْرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ
ALHAMDULILLAAHIL LAZEE A'AFAANEE MIMMAB TALAAKA BIHI WA FADDALANEE A'LAYKA WA A'LAA KASEERIM MIMMAN KHALAQ
Praise be to Allah, Who has kept me well from what He has afflicted you with, and has favored me above you and above many of those whom He has created.
It is also required to say this statement as inaudibly as possible, so that the defected person does not hear you.
