Is it possible to treat pornography addiction resulting from continuous exposure to sexual stimuli during adolescence, and does this reason alleviate the punishment, and what is the way to get rid of this addiction, and is marriage a sufficient solution, and could the cause of this addiction be an act of magic?
Watching pornographic films is evil, and becoming addicted to them is a source of distress; they arouse base desires and lead to fornication. Prevention is achieved through marriage for those who can afford it, and fasting for those who cannot. A Muslim must maintain prayer, as it prohibits indecency and evil. Sorcery is real, but it cannot cause harm except by Allah's permission. It is not permissible to accuse a stepmother of sorcery without evidence. Ruqyah can be sought from righteous people without resorting to soothsayers and fortune-tellers. You erred in telling your fiancée about your matter; a believer is commanded to conceal his own faults while repenting.
