The whispers of shaytaan ( devil )?

Assalamu alaykum brothers & sisters

I feel like lately I became more closer to God alhamdulillah, but I constantly getting these thought in my mind that God aint real and I am just wasting my time and stuff. Mostly after hearing those thoughts I recite some dua but it is beginning to get really annoying.

Cus sometimes I am like did I really thought thatt?? Astagfirullah. This happens lately so much that I start to think that I actually said that but then realize its shaytan. What can I do?

May Allah (swt) bless you all

    Wa alaikum asalaam. Do not worry you are not alone :) Shaitan whispers such things to those who increase in faith and rank

    When this used to happen to me I would always remember why I converted and the time when reading the Quran would redefine perfection for me everytime I read it, thinking such perfection is only Divine

    Even today I can’t be thankful enough to God for sending this miracle that we can hold right in our hands and read with our own eyes to know that He exists and we are on the right path

    Assalamu alaykum

    I feel like lately I became more closer to God alhamdulillah,=

    I feel like lately I became more closer to Allah alhamdu lil Allah

    Allah swt describe Himself: He is Allah"

    He is Allah , other than whom there is no deity, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed. He is the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

    He is Allah , other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Perfection, the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior. Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.

    He is Allah , the Creator, the Inventor, the Fashioner; to Him belong the best names. Whatever is in the heavens and earth is exalting Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

    =======

    think of shaytaa / satan as it is under your feet, if it cause you to sin, Allah swt forgive all sins.

    Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."

    thoughts can be over come by zikr & knowledge.

    as for such thoughts, I hope I can help removing it. [in details]

    Evidence for Allah swt as THE Creator: trillions of creations daily! ya Subhanal Allah /Praised

    on the other hand, what kafirs / atheists offer? nothing just dirty life,

    we live for world peace, they caused chaos & destruction

    The closer you get to Allah the louder Shaytan whispers. Eventually he will be screaming at you because he does not want you to be close to Allah. Keep fighting. You can never lose by fighting. You only lose when you give up and stop the fight.

  • ~ Narrated by Abu Hurayrah (ra): “Some of the companions of the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ came to him and said, ‘We find in our hearts things that none of us dares utter.’ He said, ‘Do you really find that?’ They said, ‘Yes.’ He (Muhammad ﷺ ) said, ‘That is clear faith.’” [Sahih Muslim(2/153)]

    So one should not believe that he is the first Muslim to get these evil thoughts!

    According to this hadith, if you get thoughts you do not dare to utter, YOU HAVE CLEAR FAITH!

    One has to understand why it’s clear faith, scholars have stated that it’s because one doesn’t dare to utter it, thus rejecting the thought, etc!

    It is hard to control the whispers~ but it is easy to ignore. All that satan can do is whisper, he can not force you into anything...he is weak ~ just ignore him.

    So next time you hear these whispers ~ just say "auzubillahi minashaytaanir rajeem" -- you can say Ayat-ul-Qursi - http://quran.com/2/255 ~ and you can also say the Azaan

    These will be a mean of protection against the satan.

    Don't listen to shytan.Keep the good work of pleasing Allah.

    Trust Allah.

    Allah, the Almighty says: {And Allah would never make your 'Faith' to be lost}. (Al-Baqarah, 143)

    Frequently recite Surah Al'Nnas as often as you can and not only after bad thoughts.

    بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ‏

    قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبّ‏ِ النَّاسِ

    مَلِكِ النَّاسِ

    إِلَهِ النَّاسِ

    مِن شَرِّ الْوَسْوَاسِ الخَْنَّاسِ

    الَّذِى يُوَسْوِسُ فىِ صُدُورِ النَّاسِ

    مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَ النَّاسِ

    In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

    Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of Mankind

    The King (Ruler) Mankind

    The God of Mankind

    From the mischief of the Whisperer (who withdraws after his whisper)

    Who whispers into the hearts of Mankind

    Among Jinns and among Men.

    satan does it to those who progress in their status. For getting

    rid of insinuations of satan, recite La hawala wala quwata more

    often. A hundred times or more and in shaa Allah you will be

    saved from it.
