The question

Are the whispers that a Muslim woman experiences, which involve attributing divinity to Satan, considered a form of shirk, given her rejection of these thoughts, her seeking refuge [in Allah], and her utterance of the two Shahadas, or are they merely whispers?

The answer

Satan is an enemy who whispers to the son of Adam concerning his faith. Therefore, a Muslim should turn away from these whispers by seeking refuge in Allah. Disliking these whispers and repelling them does no harm; rather, it is a sign of clear faith. However, one should be keen on acquiring beneficial knowledge and keeping away from pursuing and listening to misguidance, because doubts may cling to a weak heart. The Imams of the Salaf used to turn away from listening to doubts.
