What does one do if he has waswas (whispers) during wudu'?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What does one do if he has waswas (whispers) and stays in the restroom for a long time, repeating his wudu'?

Answer:
He is required to seek refuge in Allah from the whispers, to clean himself, to perform wudu', and to leave. He should not stay in the restroom because of the whispers, for if he stays, the whispers increase over him. He should seek help from Allah, clean himself, perform wudu', and leave. If he makes a habit of this, the whispers will go away from him. However, if he surrenders to the whispers, they will increase over him.
