Cure for Masturbation

Q: I am addicted to masturbation. I can't help myself and I'm only 13 years old. What can I do?

A: Your important query refers. You should seek counsel with a learned (Aalim), pious person in your area, who can assist and advise you. Ponder over a few points; the physical harms of this harmful act, also the spiritual harms. A person, who excessively commits this act, will not be physically fit for marriage in later life, eyes and memory becomes weak, etc.

Sayyidina Ataa' was asked regarding this. He said that a group of people will be resurrected on Qiyaamah and their hands will be pregnant. It will be these people who had been doing this and did not repent. Their fault will be witnessed by everyone on Qiyaamah.

Sayyidina Sa'eed ibni Jubayr says that Allah will punish those people who play with their private parts.

Stay away from seeing, reading, viewing such people (girls), and material which encourages this act, e.g. magazines, such internet sites, etc. Read Deeni books to build up within you love and fear of Allah.

Ponder regularly over these points and seek advice from a learned person you trust.

Sit alone a few minutes every day thinking about the Power and Punishment of Allah.

Spend a lot of time in the company of an elderly Aalim or pious person. Ponder regularly over these points and seek advice from a learned person you trust.

Make thikr of these words as much as possible:


لاَ حَوْلَ وَ لاَ قُوَّةَ اِلاَّ بِالله

Trans: There is no power to do good, nor strength to abstain from evil, but with Allah.

May Allah Ta'aala assist you in your fight against this disease Aameen.
