Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Assalamualaikum. I’m a patient of ocd. I have a bad habit of masturbation. A few days before i masturbated (i regret that) and then after 30 min i urinated and then went for bathing when i was bathing i had a sensation and feeling in my private part that maybe I leaked a urine drops (i have this sensation many times when bathing). I dont know really if i had leaked a urine drop or not. Then after bathing when i had a towel wrapped in my body i had a very strong feeling and sensation like feeling hot in and around private part and don’t know really if it is of urine drops or water that is in my body. When I looked at the towel after that I see wetness as my body is not dry and I don’t know what this wetness is of because i did not dry my body after bathing. I don’t know if that water was of body or of urine drops because I had a very strong sensation. I don’t know if it was waswas or not now I’m getting thought that everything in my house is impure. Because maybe i actually leaked urine.But I’m not sure about that. I’m very depressed about that.Is everything impure like towel etc?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Note that i don’t know if that wetness is of urine or body’s water. I’m getting a doubts that what if it is really urine drops. I’m getting thoughts that because I masturbated the drops of urine is because of that I don’t know what to do.\u00a0 And what if the urine drops are actually leaked (I dont know about that) are everything impure? I had use the same towel without washing many times is everything impure? I had also same feelings and situation many times after masturbation.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

OCD<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

First of all, it is crucial as with all things that we make Dua<\/em> and beseech All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101<\/em> for His assistance in alleviating our hardships and difficulties.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Secondly, it is imperative that you seek medical assistance from experts in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Every difficulty and illness that we go through are all tests from All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101. All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101<\/em> informs us;<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe shall surely test you with fear and hunger, loss of property, lives and crops; but give glad tidings to those who have fortitude. Who, when struck by misfortune, says: \u2018We belong to All\u0101h<\/em>, and surely to Him we shall return.\u2019\u201d [Surah al-Baqarah; 2:155-156<\/em>] [1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cHe Who created Death and Life, that He may test which of you is best in worship: and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving.\u201d [Surah al-Mulk; 67:2<\/em>] [2]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, regardless of whatever difficulties we are going through we should never become despondent in the mercy of All\u0101h. All\u0101h Ta\u2019\u0101l\u0101<\/em> forgives all sins (big or small). [Surah az-Zumar; 39:53<\/em>] [3]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All\u0101h Ta\u2019\u0101l\u0101<\/em> reminds us that He does not burden us with any trial greater than that which we can bare. [Surah al-Baqarah; 2:286<\/em>] [4]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whatever troubles we go through, All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101 <\/em>has specifically chosen to test us with these because All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101 <\/em>knows that we can handle it and through these hardships, All\u0101h Ta’\u0101l\u0101 <\/em>wants to give us the opportunity to turn back to Him and draw nearer to him.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All\u0101h Ta\u2019\u0101l\u0101 <\/em>says that with every hardship comes two sets of ease. [Surah al-Sharh; 94:5-6<\/em>] [5]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Prophet \ufdfa said: \u201cNo calamity befalls a Muslim but All\u0101h<\/em> expiates some of his sins because of it\u2026\u201d [S\u0101h\u012bh al-Bukhari: Hadith 5640<\/em>] [6]<\/span><\/p>\n

Advice<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can read Ta’aw’wuz<\/em> (\u0623\u064e\u0639\u0651\u0648\u0652\u0630\u064f \u0628\u0650\u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u0650 \u0645\u0650\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0651\u064e\u064a\u0652\u0637\u064e\u0627\u0646\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u0651\u064e\u062c\u0650\u064a\u0652\u0645) and the Surah al-Falaq<\/em> and Surah an-N\u0101s<\/em> (Surahs 113-114<\/em>) to assist you against the whispers of shayt\u0101n<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWhile I was travelling with the Messenger of All\u0101h <\/em>\ufdfa between al-Juhfah <\/em>and al-Abwa’<\/em>, a wind and intense darkness enveloped us, whereupon the Messenger of All\u0101h<\/em> \ufdfa began to seek refuge in All\u0101h<\/em>, reciting: \u201cI seek refuge in the Lord of the dawn,\u201d and \u201cI seek refuge in the Lord of men.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He then said: Uqbah<\/em>, use them when seeking refuge in All\u0101h<\/em>, for no one can use anything to compare with them for the purpose.\u201d [Sunan Ab\u012b D\u0101w\u016bd: Hadith 1463<\/em>] [7]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cNarrated Sulaiman bin Surd<\/em>: While I was sitting in the company of the Prophet \ufdfa, two men abused each other and the face of one of them became red with anger, and his jugular veins swelled (i.e., he became furious). On that the Prophet \ufdfa said: \u201cI know a word, the saying of which will cause him to relax, if he does say it. If he says: \u201cI seek Refuge with All\u0101h<\/em> from Satan\u201d (\u0623\u064e\u0639\u064f\u0648\u0630\u064f \u0628\u0650\u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u064e\u0647\u0650 \u0645\u0650\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0651\u064e\u064a\u0652\u0637\u064e\u0627\u0646\u0650) then all is anger will go away.\u201d\u201d [S\u0101h\u012bh al-Bukh\u0101r\u012b: Hadith 3282<\/em>] [8]<\/span><\/p>\n

Masturbation is a major sin. Only through sincere repentance and Taubah<\/em> can one truly atone for their sins.<\/span><\/p>\n
