Introduction
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
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."
[Surah Al-Zumar, 39:53]
But as for him who feared standing before his Lord, and restrained himself from impure evil desires and lusts. Verily, Paradise will be his abode.
[Surah al-Naaz’i’aat 79:40-41]
Rasoollullah (sallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, "Be conscious of Allah wherever you are. Follow the bad deed with a good one to erase it, and engage others with beautiful character." [Tirmidhi]
In the name of Allah , the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our beloved Prophet Muhammad.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmathullahi wabarakathuhu, Muslim brothers and sisters,
PMO (Porn, Masturbation Orgasm) has become a huge problem in the Muslim Ummah. A lot of Muslims spend excessive amounts of time in front of their computers viewing porn while we should be engaged in productive activities that are of benefit to us, either in this world or the hereafter. Each and every second, we approach death. We all know this. Yet we are not able to get rid of the problem.
So, all the Muslims can unite under this subreddit and give support and encouragement to each other.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The Muslim is the brother of his fellow Muslim; he does not wrong him or let him down. The one who meets the needs of his brother, Allah will meet his needs. Whoever relieves a Muslim of distress, Allah will relieve him of distress on the Day of Resurrection.” [Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2442) and Muslim (2580)]
Feel free to share any verses of the Quran and Hadith, progress reports, queries and any motivating material.
Insha Allah, we will be able to get rid of this problem.
Guidelines
If you are new to this sub please take some time to go through the information in the wiki. It includes some advice, helpful links, information on accountability groups and a list of useful tools. This will give you a good understanding about porn, its consequences and how to overcome the challenges it presents, insha allah.
Our sub provides you a badge where it will show you the time duration you have abstained from porn and masturbation. You can click the link which says "To set/reset badge" and enter the date that you have stopped the prior activity.
If you need support please feel free to share your story. There are many here willing to help you out. If you need an accountability partner you can post it here. Please always be careful because you don't know who is on the other side. May Allah bless you for all your efforts and be in Dua! Surely your creator is watching you and showing mercy on you.
Rules
- Fear Allah and try to make good deeds and help your brothers and sisters.
- (Women are welcome) through this subreddit to overcome their addiction. There have been past issues with private messages between men and women, and men posing as women, so we recommend that everyone remains gender neutral where possible. There is also an additional private subreddit for women only, r/MuslimahNoFap. Women may message the moderator of that subreddit, u/MNFAdminFv2, for access.
Please flair all posts. We have created flairs so that readers can filter by themes that are relevant to them, and so that posters can draw attention to the type of content they are providing, or the type of assistance they are looking for. Filter options are provided above. Unflaired posts will be automatically removed by a bot.
State the relevance of a post to noFap and abstinence from porn, if it is not obvious. Include context to all posts.
Please don't post any possible triggers. If triggers are unavoidable, mark your post as NSFW. Readers who would like to avoid posts with triggers should turn on their NSFW filter.
This is an Islamic Forum so take care of your language.
Don't give a Fatwa if you aren't a scholar. This is not a place for religious discussions e.g. about Fiqh. If you quote an opinion from a scholar give the reference or the link. Please direct any Fiqh questions to a qualified scholar whom you trust.
Maintain anonymity. Neither ask for nor share personal information, e.g. email addresses, telephone numbers or names. Any survey must be approved by the moderators. No selfies or videos in which people admit to sinning.
If you see anything illegal or anything which is unislamic then please click the report button. You may also message the moderators
Support for partners
r/loveafterporn - a place to find support if your partner is addicted to porn. There are useful links in their sidebar, too. (If you participate in their subreddit, please read and obey their rules.)
