What is the ruling on repeating sins, being afflicted with the disease of sodomy, delaying the making up of missed Ramadan fasts, becoming lax after worship, thinking ill of people, and excessively thinking about sex, and what are the beneficial books regarding fatwas, remembrances (adhkar), and the Sunnah?
You are in great danger, dear brother, due to the major sins you are committing, such as sodomy and intentionally abandoning fasting. You must hasten to sincere repentance, seek help through supplication and good companionship, stay away from abominations, regularly attend gatherings of knowledge and remembrance, maintain congregational prayers in the mosque, and draw closer to Allah through supererogatory acts of worship.
You must make up the days you missed before the next , and you owe an expiation for delaying the makeup, which is feeding one poor person for each day. Feel the greatness of Allah and His awareness of you, and remember death and what comes after it. Remove evil thoughts by replacing them with thoughts about the welfare of your worldly life and your afterlife. We advise you to read the book "Fortress of the Muslim," books on the Prophet's biography and the news of the Salaf, "Riyadh as-Salihin," "Aysar al-Tafasir" by Al-Jaza'iri, and the fatwas of trustworthy scholars.
