The answer

It is advisable to disregard obsessive thoughts, as mere passing thoughts in the heart are not given weight, based on the : "Indeed, Allah has forgiven my Ummah for whatever thoughts cross their minds, as long as they do not act upon them or speak them." In another narration: "Allah has forgiven my Ummah for whatever their hearts whisper, as long as they do not act upon it or speak it."

Ibn Mayyaba al-Shinqiti said: "And that by which Satan whispers, But the heart rejects it, that is faith. So do not argue with the accursed one concerning it, For it will only increase his power."
