Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Masturbation is reprehensible and has negative consequences, but repentance from it is easy for whoever is truthful with Allah. Your feeling of remorse and your desire to be rid of it are good signs. Seek help from Allah, be keen to spend your time in beneficial matters, avoid solitude, do not dwell on thoughts, and make abundant supplications.
