Dealing with Sufi shaykhs and their followers

Q 2: I am always struggling with my conscience; sometimes it is inclined to goodness and other times to evil. Please advise.


A: If you feel inclined towards doing something good, do it immediately and be faithful in your intention. Seize the opportunity, and praise Allah that He has facilitated goodness for you. If you feel inclined towards doing something evil, refrain from doing it, and seek refuge with Allah from Satan. You should block the means to evil, and transfer them into something useful which distracts you from thinking of anything evil. You should also stay away from the means leading to evil, and supplicate to Allah to protect you from all forms of evil, as Allah is near to those who supplicate to Him. May Allah guide us all to doing what is good and keep us away from evil.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
