Answer

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

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

We make dua Allah Taala grant you complete shifa. Ameen.

OCD is medical condition. We advise you consult your physician for diagnosis and medication. We are hopeful that appropriate medication will help alleviate your disorder.

Simply ignore such thoughts and do not pay any attention to them. Do not allow the whispers of shaytan to intimidate you. When you experience such thoughts recite,

I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
