The question

Is it necessary to pay attention to the whispers of disbelief, such as intentionally jumping over a book of religions that contains the name of Allah, and the subtle whispers of lying that make a person frequently say "maybe"?

The answer

The treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is by seeking Allah's help and relying on Him, knowing that Allah will not hold you accountable for what you think to yourself or what Satan casts into your mind. You must immediately turn your mind away from satanic whispers and fortify yourself with legitimate supplications (awrad) morning, evening, and before sleep. It is recommended to consult a specialized Muslim psychiatrist. As for what was asked about, if you did not intend to insult religious books, then you are not held accountable. If you did not intend to lie, then you are not a liar, and it is not necessary to say "perhaps" at the end of a statement.
