What is the way to get rid of the obsessive whispers of returning to misguidance, and how can the heart be firm upon obedience and drawing closer to Allah?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Your fear of backsliding is a healthy thing that motivates you to draw closer to Allah and remain steadfast in acts of obedience. You must have a good opinion of Allah and remember His mercy. Among the things that will help you remain steadfast are: increasing supplication (du'a) and remembrance (), keeping company with righteous women, contemplating the Day of Judgment and its terrors, and contemplating the Names and Attributes of Allah.
