What is the ruling on repeatedly masturbating almost daily after having sworn an oath to stop several times, especially with the presence of obsessive-compulsive disorder concerning exposure to sexual perversion that drives one to practice it, and what is the ruling on not fulfilling an oath made by Allah, and invoking curses upon oneself?
Masturbation is forbidden (haram), and the cure for the fear of deviancy is not by resorting to it, but rather by resorting to Allah the Almighty, seeking His help, while being mindful of Him and feeling His constant observation, and supplicating to Him. It is not permissible to supplicate against oneself.
