What is the solution for someone who has practiced masturbation since childhood, discovered that she is afflicted by a jinn عاشق (a jinn that is in love with her), finds it difficult to adhere to treatment, experiences sudden urges that push her to commit forbidden acts, and fears falling into lesbianism or adultery?

This habit is harmful, reprehensible, and undermines self-confidence.

Your problem is one of two things:

1. It could be mere delusions stemming from the devil's manipulation. In this case, it is advised to seek refuge in Allah, occupy your time with beneficial activities, and strive against your lower self.

2. What you feel might be real, and you could be afflicted with a jinn (demon) of infatuation. In this case, it is advised not to surrender to it. You must recite the prescribed remembrances (adhkar), read Surat Al-Baqarah, perform ruqyah (Islamic exorcism), drink Zamzam water, and fast frequently, as it is a prophetic cure that constricts the path of the devil.

Finally, it is more fitting for a woman to have a family. Marriage is an absolute obligation for you. Do not delay if a suitable suitor comes forward. If none comes, then your family should endeavor to find one. You can also inform close female friends that you desire marriage and stability.
