unfortunately I have to write hear, because of a problem what I have been for many years. It is very difficult to explain that in public, because that are very personal matters. And to explain that to every one is very unpleasant so I request to delete this topic, after we get inshaAllah a solution. I know that perhaps many other brothers can profit, when they have the same matter. But it is really unpleasant for me. And I will try to speak directly, please forgive me for that.
It is a topic which is discussed in every forum and has a lot of topics, it is concerning masturbation. I am addicted to this sin since more than 10 years. I have been starting to do that when I was very young, and had no idea about Islam. But I have been trying to stop it for many years. I tried it before I came (start to 'practice') to Islam (I am not a convert) but could not stop it. I am trying it since I am 'practicing', but I can not manage it for longer than two or three weeks. That is really frustrating. Main problem is, it destroys my morality and my iman. I have had a long time where I thought that I am a kafeer (auzubillah) although I know that I men does not become a Muslim due to sins.
That has a lot of affect to my real life. I want to learn (din and other things) but I do not have 'energy' to do it, because of thinking always to the one thing. It is horrible, sometimes I do not have any desire, alhamdullah, but then it overcomes me again. I am actually lowering my gaze, in real world, but when I am at home, it is pretty difficult to lower gazes in the virtual world. It feels different than real world. In real world I have shame so for instance I am not able to perform zinaa. But I am unable to manage it. I have to fear Allah, but if this desire overcomes me, I forget, I feel that my heart is not in memory to Allah. The urge to do it is to high and even if I manage it, I do not manage it for long time, maybe hours, maybe few days. I am trying to learn and to internalize what it Islam. Who is Allah. But I was not able to be strong enough. Not for a long time. Even as I prayed, for a time I did not had internet but I found other ways to get haram movies. But I took shower and prayed nevertheless but a time came where my heard was to damaged so I stopped it to pray.
We in Islam should get married. For any is it fard for others sunnah. But how can I get married when I am doing harmful things. I fear that I am not more able to have intercourse (sorry). Because it has got a habit to do it with hands. But the point is, I want not just married to fulfill my desire. I want to get a wife, to share my life with her. I have not had any girlfriend or other relationships to others. And most people who are more than five years younger than me have experience. I know - I say alhamdullah - Allah has protect me, but I think: 'you are not praying, Allah will ask your salah, have you any chance of forgiveness?'. And then I think, all the people do everything what they want do. They will taste the fire. But I am not doing everything what I want, I am trying to be good. But without salah is everything for nothing. I will probably go into fire as well, although, I tried to be good. I am trying to do no shirk but without prayer....?
I have been trying to stop to watch porn, but it is quite difficult. I have been stopping it for some weeks now, but I am seeking other ways, which is not directly porn. I also have been looking for some pills or anything what stops the desire, but it seems that there is not anything like that. It is so hard to fight against nafs.
I am afraid start to pray, because I think, what will happen if you stop it again. I read a fatwaa, that a person who stops to pray must be killed. How can I start again, when I know that? I am afraid that I go to jamaah and stop praying and that they will kill me, because of stopping. I actually want to live in Sharia but how can I want that when brothers wants to kill me, because of stopping salah? I am very confused and I am afraid although I am living in a western country.
I know we have not to talk about our sins, but I need help at this matter. And because of that I have done it on anonymous way. Sorry for that.
