The ruling on the soul whispering evil without acting on it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I move on to another questioner who says: Sometimes my soul whispers to me to do something wrong or say something bad, but often I do not voice the words or perform the act. Is there any sin on me for that?

Answer:
There is no sin on you for what your soul whispers, as long as you do not speak or act, as in the hadith:
And if you find any of that, seek refuge in Allah from Shaytanوإذا وجدت شيئا من ذلك فاستعذ بالله من الشيطان
And it will be removed from you, by the permission of Allah. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
