The answer

Supplication (Du'a) is one of the most beneficial and impactful means for attaining what is sought and repelling what is feared. It is commanded, as Allah Almighty says: "Call upon Me; I will respond to you," and "I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me." You must frequently supplicate to Allah to grant you repentance and enable you to abandon this reprehensible act, and do not tire of supplicating. Furthermore, you must also utilize supporting means, such as enjoying your wife when lust arises, adhering to remembrance (dhikr), associating with the righteous, and staying away from provocations.
