    Experiencing satanic whispers about faith is a sign of the perfection of faith. Thieves and robbers come where there is a huge wealth. Therefore, the more strong the faith of a person, the more satan will irritate him. If a Muslim is anxious and worried about experiencing satanic whispers and seeks refuge of Allah Azzawajal tearfully from the cursed satan, this is actually a sign of strong faith.

    Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan has stated, 'considering whispers bad is absolute faith.' (Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 1, pp. 82)

    Faith is not destroyed by satanic whispers

    No matter how many and how dangerous satanic whispers a person experiences, his faith is not destroyed by them. Feeling anxiety in the heart because of experiencing satanic whisper about faith indicates that the heart is satisfied with faith. In verse 106 of Surah An-Nahl, Allah Azzawajal has said in part 14:

    And his heart is steadfast in faith. (Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (part 14, An-Nahl, verse 106)

    Satan is very close to each of us. The Revered and Renowned Prophet ﷺ has said: without doubt, Satan circulates in (the body of) man like blood. (Sahih Bukhari, vol. 1, pp. 669, Hadees 2038)

    Great Sufis Rahimahumullahu Ta'ala have said: Hence block the ways of satan by means of hunger. (Kashf-ul-khifa, vol. 1, pp. 198)

    It is stated on page 493 and 494 of the
    502 - page referneced book Malfuzaat-e-A'la Hadrat (i.e. pieces of Advice from A'la Hadrat) published by Maktaba-tul-Madinah, the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami:

    When the dying moments of (Sayyiduna) Imam Fakhruddin Raazi arrived, satan appeared. At that time, satan tries very hard to to make the dying person lose his faith because he knows that the dying person will never regain faith if he deviates from it at this point. Therefore satan asked Sayyiduna Imam Fakhruddin 'you spent your entire life in debates and discussions. Have you even recognised the Almighty is one.' 'Any proof asked the satan. He Rahmatullahi Ta'la Alayh gave a proof but the cursed satan responded cunningly. Imam Raazi Rahmatullahi Ta'la Alayh gave another proof but satan responded again. Sayyiduna Imam Raazi Rahmatullahi Ta'la Alayh gave even 360 proofs but all of them were responded by satan. Now the Imam was extremely worried and disappointed. His spiritual guide (Sayyiduna Shaykh) Najmuddin Kubra RadiAllahu Ta'la Anhu was making wudu at a far-flung area. He called Imam Raazi Rahmatullahi Ta'la Alayh from the very same place, why do you not say that i believe in the oneness of Almighty without any proof?'

    Have you realised how cunningly satan attacks! If anyone pays attention to satanic whispers, then satan continues to irritate him. Ignoring and paying no attention to his whispers is also a cure for them. Moreover, one should always seek refuge of Allah Azzawajal from the mischiefs of satan. It also became obvious that one should become disciple of any perfect spiritual guide because the attention of the spiritual guide also prevents satanic whispers.
