What is the way to get rid of the weakness of fornication while maintaining prayer and reading the Quran?
The questioner must repent sincerely to God and commit to reciting the Quran and performing prayers with humility, for prayer restrains one from indecency and evil. He should also contemplate the verses of severe warning against those who commit the abomination of fornication/adultery, which describe it as an indecency and a evil way, and whose perpetrators will have their torment doubled on the Day of Resurrection, unless they repent, believe, and do righteous deeds. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No fornicator/adulterer commits fornication/adultery while he is a believer." Moreover, fornication/adultery contradicts noble character. The questioner is advised to hasten to marry, and if unable, then he should consistently fast.
