The Ruling on Whispers in Ritual Purity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says that his brother is afflicted with whispers, and he is, praise be to Allah, religious and diligent in his acts of worship. What is obligatory for him, since he sits by the washing area for a long time for wudu' (ablution), and he says, "Count for me how many times I have performed wudu'?"
Answer:
It is obligatory to abandon the whispers. When a whisper occurs, he should seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan and abandon the whisper. Allah the Exalted said:[Fussilat 41:36] He should seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan and not pay attention to the whisper. He should be firm in the action he intends, whether it is wudu' (ablution), prayer, or something else, and the whisper will depart from him by the permission of Allah, and he should not pay attention to it. Yes.

Answer:
It is obligatory to abandon the whispers. When a whisper occurs, he should seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan and abandon the whisper. Allah the Exalted said:
And if there comes to you from Satan an evil suggestion, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
وَإِمَّا يَنزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ نَزْغٌ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
