Causes of Whispers and Ways to Get Rid of Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.
The questioner:
We received a message from a questioner for the program, in which he says: Honorable Shaykh, what are the causes of whispers, whether in prayer, in matters of creed, or in matters of life, and what are the means to take to distance oneself from them?
The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The causes of whispers are varied. Some are the result of a psychological illness, and this is treated by psychiatrists. Others are the result of heedlessness regarding the remembrance of Allah and the dominance of Satan over the person due to his not remembering Allah the Exalted, or his little remembrance of Allah the Exalted. So, heedlessness regarding the remembrance of Allah is what causes the dominance of Satan over the person. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
