Addicted to porn

· 9 Muharram 1437 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I need advice. I have a weakness of pornography. I can stop everything else but this one, I can't. I fight with the feeling and it goes sometimes when I listen to Quran but it comes back later. It keeps taunting and provoking me to do it. It is the only thing I want to stop. I read Quran and perform salaah everyday.

Answer

Break all the instruments that you have that can take you to pornography.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
