The question

How can a Muslim woman who is afflicted with the trials of gazing and attachment to men, being affected by the voices of reciters, and having intrusive thoughts (waswas) during worship, rid herself of these problems, especially during times of worship and Ramadan, given her feeling of exhaustion from these matters?

The answer

The cure for intrusive thoughts (waswas) is to turn away from them, ignore them, and not care about the thoughts Satan casts into your mind. Continue with worship and obedience without paying them any mind. There is no harm in praying in the mosque or watching religious video clips, as these intrusive thoughts have no cure other than ignoring them.
