«يأتي الشيطان أحدكم فيقول: من خلق كذا؟ من خلق كذا؟ حتى يقول: من خلق ربك ؟ فإذا بلغه فليستعذ بالله ولينته »
"Satan comes to one of you and says: 'Who created this? Who created that?' until he says, 'Who created your Lord?' When it reaches this point, seek refuge with Allah and stop such thoughts."
[Sahih Bukhari, Hadith No. 3276 | Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 134]
أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
and cease to engage with the thoughts.
Note:
Such whisperings are a tactic of Satan to create doubt and confusion. Remaining firm in faith, making dhikr (remembrance of Allah), and ignoring these thoughts are essential steps to combat them.
