Advice for One Afflicted by Whispers in Religion
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: I was afflicted with a severe illness of doubts, and Satan comes to me, and I did not seek refuge in Allah from him, to the point that I sometimes feel as if I am disbelieving in Allah. What is your guidance for me?
Answer:
This is waswas (whispers); leave it. Leave the waswas, and it will not harm you, if Allah wills. What circulates in the soul does not harm as long as the person does not speak it or act upon it.
