Request:
aslk,
I am a 2_ year old boy. Since I was teenager I’ve had homosexual thoughts due to undue exposure to male nudity. I started having sexual feelings for men and even had relationships with many men. Since when I read about Lut (as), I was always ridiculed by these thoughts…my bodily urges forced me to commit this sin. For now I have totally avoided any sort of such relationship and haven’t gone near any men for such favors. It’s been a year that I’ve completely and steadfastly left it all, but still these thoughts keep disturbing me. The presence of internet makes it even more difficult. I cant abandon internet as it is really important for my studies.
I offer daily salat and fast also, but this thing keeps troubling me. P;ease help me to completely move away from this dirt.
Response:
Try to visit Mawlana Shaykh Hisham in Michigan and spend 1-3 weeks worshipping there. In the meantime continue to build up your good habits through dhikr and salat as you said. You are on the right path but beware of distractions that bring you backwards rather than
forward. Best is to try and get married even if you will not yet live under the same roof. It will bring baraka.
