Curing obsession and Satan's plots


362

A: We advise you to get rid of these obsessions as much as you can and (Part No. 2; Page No. 195) recite Qur'an more frequently, do good deeds, turn to Allah and seek refuge in Him, supplicate to Him in du`a', hoping that He may ward off these whispers and save you from the traps of Satan, and make you steadfast in adhering to the Truth. The fate of all creatures of Allah, humans and Jinn, is in His hand, and He directs them as He wills. Furthermore, I warn you against self-admiration and showing off after doing acts of worship or good deeds and behaving in a religious manner, for you should not compare what you do to that of whoever is inferior to you in terms of obedience. This may make you think highly of yourself, and it may be a means leading to deceleration in offering good deeds, and discourage your will to do good deeds. However, you should look to those who are more superior than you in terms of adhering to the Book of Allah, and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace be upon him), and their steadfastness in that regard. In this way, you will be keen to do good deeds more frequently, seek the forgiveness and mercy of Allah, and aspire to the highest ranks and enduring bless in the Hereafter. May Allah make you steadfast in following the Truth, and guide you to the right path, and ward off these whispers.Also we advise you to read the book entitled Talbis Iblis by Abu Al-Faraj ibn Al-Jawzy, for he detailed this issue in this book, may Allah make this book beneficial to you!May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
