A man is afflicted with doubt in prayer that he did not perform wudu; what is the guidance?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The second question is about waswas (whispers) in prayer and doubt, that is to say. Satan whispers to you, trying to make you appear [as if you have a defect]. The second thing: when you recite the Qur'an, you feel like you are choking; is that from Satan? Okay, thank you.

Answer:
As for waswas, my brother, leave the waswas.
[first] seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the expelled [from His mercy].فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
[An-Nahl 16:98]
If you feel something,
[first] seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the expelled [from His mercy].فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
[An-Nahl 16:98]
reject the waswas, do not turn to it, do not worry about it, and it will go away from you by the permission of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
