What is the solution for recurrent whisperings (waswas) that shift from one topic to another, specifically the waswas of laughing during prayer, where laughter overcomes one for no amusing reason, compelling the person to breathe heavily or rapidly through their mouth to ward off the laughter, and Satan whispers to them about the emission of two letters during this breathing, thereby obliging them to repeat the prayer?
The treatment for obsessive thoughts (waswas) is to disregard them and pay them no mind. Pray normally, unconcerned by the devil's whisperings, and strive against your soul to get rid of them. You can also consult doctors or the consultation section on the website. The tranquility of prayer is the stillness and stability of the limbs in bowing, prostrating, and standing, and this is an easy matter.
