Question:
He says: I suffer from a great number of intrusive thoughts, which are sometimes related to doubts about Allah, and sometimes to desires. What do you advise me to do? And what is the cure for these intrusive thoughts?
Answer:
These intrusive thoughts will not harm you. Leave them, and they will not harm you, if Allah wills. Seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan, and do not speak about them or act upon them. The mere fact that they cross your mind, you leave them, and they will not harm you. Yes.
