Question:
Asalaam Walaykum,
Through my faith in the Naqshbandiyya Tariqat and the knowledgeable shaykhs, I have finally come to garner the courage to ask a very embarrassing question. Please forgive me. I am an unmarried adult male who has a strong sexual interest in female feet. I am very embarrassed about the issue, yet its a powerful and constant desire. Even if I were married, I would find it very embarrassing to mention, nonetheless satisfy. Should I pray to remove this desire from my nafs? What do I do? Please give me a wird. Please pray that I can find peace and harmony from nerve racking issues. May Allah reward you for helping me in this very deep-rooted concern. I would like to clarify that I do not have any desire for unclean and impure najas things. JazakAllahu Khair
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
It is Sunna for a man to view the prospective spouse’s hands and feet or ankles before deciding so marry but look for more than mere physical attraction.
Pray Salat al-Najat before Fajr. Its modality is described in naqshbandi.org.
