Do the intrusive thoughts I experience regarding prayer and ritual purity, caused by a jinn lover (al-Mass al-ʿĀshiq), along with the presence of yellowish discharge before menstruation, count as mere whispers (waswasah)?

It is recommended to maintain the morning and evening adhkar (remembrances) and to completely disregard waswas (whispers/obsessive thoughts). Yellowish discharge (sufrah) is considered menses if it appears during the period, but it is not considered menses after purification, based on the statement of Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her): "We did not consider the yellowish or brownish discharge as anything while we were in a state of purity."
