What should this person do if he is trying to get rid of waswas but it is coming in different forms .
Islamic Ruling & Answer
VerifiedSuch a person should ignore the intrusive doubts (waswas) and stick to the Islamic principle that wudu is not invalidated unless there is certainty. Therefore, he should avoid repeating wudu again and again or unnecessarily prolonging the prayer. It is not correct to break the prayer midway or deliberately delay it; rather, he should complete it on time in a simple and moderate manner. At the same time, he should be mindful of his mother’s worry and concern, while also ensuring that his prayer is performed properly. He must strictly avoid lying, as it is a sin. He should also make dua engage in frequent remembrance of Allah, and adopt both spiritual and practical steps to overcome these doubts.
