Are the whispers and feelings you experience from the manipulation of Satan, and is it possible for Satan's manipulation of a person to reach this extent? And what is the correct way to eliminate these whispers and be completely protected from them?
Satan is an enemy to humankind, plotting schemes against them, yet he is weak and retreats at the mention of Allah Almighty. He gains strength from human weakness and heedlessness. To protect oneself from him, it is recommended to recite the Qur’an frequently, engage in abundant remembrance of Allah, avoid solitude as much as possible, and associate with righteous women. Surat al-Baqarah expels Satan, so do not pay attention to his whispers that discourage you from reciting it. Fear is a serious illness that must be repelled by trusting in Allah and relying on Him. Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is religiously prohibited due to its inclusion of violations, whereas relaxation exercises are permissible as long as they do not include anything forbidden. Do not pay excessive attention to these matters, as they might strengthen them within you. If you need more, please consult the psychological counseling section.
