Request:
Salam alikoum,
Please could you only send me the answer as I feel ashamed for writing this.
When I was young I started to masturbate but as I grew older I realized that isn’t permitted so I stopped. Recently I’ve realized that I’m doing this in my sleep unwillingly. When I wake up for fajr I realize that I’ve done it. I’ve even tied my hands to bed, but in vain because I found them untied next morning. Tried to search for an answer and found this.
I’m trying to follow the prescribed, is that good? Please ask Mawlana to pray for me as I feel distressed about it. Fear that I’ll sin again if I go back to sleep after fajr therefore I don’t sleep, then I feel tired during the day. I also don’t want to miss Ramadan, so please pray for me.Forgive for my lack of adab.
Salam

wa `alaykum salam,
Insha-Allah Mawlana Shaykh Hisham is praying for you.
Marriage is the best cure. Ask your parents to get you engaged as soon as possible and be frank saying it will protect you from temptation.
