Treating Obsessions When Reciting the Verse of the Throne

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I have many obsessions when reciting the Verse of the Throne, or anything that involves the remembrance of Allah. What is the best thing to do, or what should I do, knowing that I have sought refuge from Satan?

Answer:
You seek refuge from Shaytan with a focused heart. With a focused heart, he will be driven away from you, if Allah wills. Allah the Exalted said:
(98) So when you recite the Qur'an, [first] seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the expelled [from His mercy]. (99) Indeed, there is for him no authority over those who have believed and rely upon their Lord. (100) His authority is only over those who take him as an ally and those who through him associate others with Allah.فَإِذَا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ إِنَّمَا سُلْطَانُهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ يَتَوَلَّوْنَهُ وَالَّذِينَ هُم بِهِ مُشْرِكُونَ
[An-Nahl 16:98-100]
So when you seek refuge in Allah with a focused heart and turn to Allah, Allah will drive Shaytan away from you. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
