Last night i was watching this YouTube video about Shirk. It was explaining the definition of Shirk and the dangers of Shirk. And in my mind i was thinking about whether or not i've commited Shirk. So i was thinking have i ever said this? Have i ever said that? And then i realised that no i've not said anything that has made me commit Shirk. But then out of nowhere, something in the back of my mind made me think that i might have said something about Allah & Christianity, and i was thinking about whether or not i said anything that would've been classed as Shirk regarding Allah & Christianity and then in my mind i said 'Have i ever said Allah is like Jesus like?' Then i said no i haven't and then i realised what i had said i was like oh no. Have i just said what i thought i said?' I've only just been learning and becoming aware of what Shirk actually is, and how serious Shirk is. I became extremely, and i mean extremely terrified that i might have commited Shirk. Thing is, when i said what i said, i never actually said it, it came into my mind and my mind spoke this, and all night i was shaking and i was in such a terrible state that i didn't know what to do. I found out that if you commit Shirk, Allah (SWT) will not accept any of your good deeds at all. And i began to think that i was going to end up in Hell fire and i am seriously scared. When i said what i did, i didn't believe in what i said, i didn't plan on saying such a thing, its never been something that i've believed in, i believe that Allah (SWT) is one, and should be worshipped alone, that's what i have been believing all my life and i still believe the same thing, Allah (SWT) should be worshipped alone. What i said, it was by accident in the sense that i was saying it not realising what it meant until after i had said it. I don't believe in what i said, and now i don't know what to think anymore and i'm in such a bad state. I want to know is this Shirk? Have i committed Shirk? What dua's can i read to stop myself from accidentally having these accidental things come into my mind, i feel like Shaytan keeps getting to me, and making me say these things, making me say things i am against. I would NEVER idol worship or believe in more than one God, because it is wrong, Shaytan keeps bothering me with his tricks and i don't know how to cope anymore. I spent my whole day getting upset today, so i was wondering if you could help me , give me some advice, some quotes from the Qu'raan? I don't want to burn in Hell Fire for eternity at all. Does Allah still accept me as a Muslim? Have all my good deeds been made worthless now? Will Allah (SWT) forgive me? I feel the most terrible i have ever felt in my whole life, i repented a number of times today before i went to college. I haven't been able to think straight or even eat much.
Brothers and Sisters; i am VERY confused. Earlier today, i was saying to myself 'There is NO God BUT ALLAH (SWT) because as a muslim this is what i believe in with my entire heart and i love to say this regularly.
But today as i was saying this I was trying to express how much i believe in this, therefore i was saying each word genuinely from my heart.
And as i was doing this, i did this : 'There is NO God [ i took a pause here ] then i said, BUT Allah (SWT). And now because i paused at the first part of when i said this, i feel like i've done something wrong because i paused at that particular part; i feel like i've committted Shirk by pausing at the part that i did.
Have i actually committed Shirk by pausing at the part that i did or is this just Shaytan messing with me again ??
Because i DEFINITLEY BELIEVE that there is NO God BUT ALLAH (SWT)
i'm very sorry if this is confusing to you but i do need your help and i need to know is this Shaytan making me think i've committed Shirk by pausing when i did or did i actually do something that was horrible ??
ALSO, IT WAS NEVER MY INTENTION TO COMMIT SHIRK; I WANTED TO SAY 'There is NO God BUT ALLAH (SWT) because i love to say this regularly.
Jazakallah Khairun
May Allah (SWT) be with you always.
Relax... your fine ... Allah (Swt) has said in the Quran...
(4:28) Allah wants to lighten your burdens, for man was created weak.
Human being means to err... to make error... that is the reason why Allah (Swt) accepted the repentance of Adam (a.s).... BUT in your case you have not made a BIG mistake... we are Humans we make small mistakes we will continue making mistakes... just seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan whenever you think something is wrong.. and inshAAllah Allah (swt) will make things clear for you...
Also Beauty about Islam is.. that you will get rewards based on your Intention and NOT your actions...
Muhammad (Saw) said.. "Actions will be judged by Intentions"...
So even if you commit a mistake and you did not intend to .... there is NO sin my sister!

Jazakallah Khairun for posting an answer, may Allah (SWT) be with you, so Brother are you sure that i have not committed Shirk ? I really need clarification on this in particular .
... So i was thinking have i ever said this? Have i ever said that? ..
If u willingly or jokingly make fun of Allah and His Messnegers , take deity besides one God - that take u out of Islam . So , we should be consious about that but don't worry too much .
Utter the Shahada before go to sleep and some other times. So that if we may committed shirk , uttering Shahada will erase the sins.
And Allah Knows Best.
Christ will never be proud to reject to be a slave to God .....holy Quran, chapter Women , 4: 172
Allah swt is the most merciful and He does not wait for us to make mistakes to punish us, we were not created to be punished. Allah knows what your intentions are and you know satan hates us so he will do his best to take us away from Allah. Just don't listen to him and ignore all he says or he will overpower you and take you astray and that's a fact I have seen in many people unfortunately. When you feel you said something wrong then say "La ilaha ila Allah" and "Aouthu bilahi min al shaytan al rajeem".
It's very beautiful that you love Allah so much alhamdulilah but remember that satan will use that against you so just give him a deaf ear.
May Allah guide you and all muslims, ameen
Jazaki Allah khiir

Asalaamu Alaikum Wr Wb, Firstly my sister in order for Shirk to take place then you need to accept it with your heart and not just your tongue. Usually there is a connection between heart and tongue but in your case you just simply stated it without believing it in your heart.
Sameway when person says shahada without believing it with their heart then there Shahada is not accepted until they have affirmed what they are saying with their heart. So because of the fact that you have not accepted it in your heart but just simply said it then it is not shirk.
Even if a person done shirk by accepting it in their heart, if afterwards they denounce the shirk and feel remorseful and repent sincerely to Allah with the intention of never repeating such an act then Allah will forgive inshallah.
You should also realsie that shaythan knew your weakness and was playing on this by trying to confuse you so whenever you get such thoughts then say: A'udhubillahi Minashaythanirajeem and also La hawla walaa Quwatha illah billah
Spend as much time as possible in recitation of Qur'an and dhikrullah aswell as learning about Islam and involving yourself in doing good deeds for this month is short and it may be our last!
May Allah help us to be strong against our nafs (desires) and the whispers of our enemy Satan. Ameen
