The Cure for Bad Suspicion of One’s Brothers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Shaykh, I suffer from bad suspicion of my brothers and sisters, especially those with me in the house, as well as my colleagues at work. Does this diminish or detract from my faith? And what is the cure for it? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
This is waswas (whispers of Satan), and its cure is seeking refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan; because waswas is from Shaytan. This is from waswas and from bad suspicion. You must avoid it and have good suspicion of your brothers and your relatives; because the default for a Muslim is goodness and justice. Yes.
