The answer

Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah and upon his family and companions. To proceed:\n\nDo not despair of treatment, for every ailment has a cure. It is advised to treat the heart to resist desires and doubts, especially the destructive habit of masturbation. The Prophet, peace be upon him, guided the youth to marry, and for those who cannot, they should fast. Stimulating means deaden the heart and diminish its light. It's necessary to resist desires and wean the self off whims. It is also advised to keep the company of good people, stay away from the wicked, acquire beneficial knowledge, and feel the watchfulness of Allah, the Exalted.\n\nAnd Allah knows best.
