Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you, in her last question she says: I have obsessive thoughts that used to whisper to me about small and large matters, and praise be to Allah, I have improved. May Allah reward you, Shaykh, and everyone who has obsessive thoughts. May Allah reward you with good. The sender is a daughter of Yemen from Yemen; I am listening to you.
Answer:
We ask Allah to grant you and other Muslim women like you a cure. Do not worry about the issue of intrusive thoughts (waswas). If you feel the presence of intrusive thoughts, seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan.[Al-A'raf 7:200] He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. So, seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan frequently. Yes.
