			What if someone has was was what's
the solution? My solution? Because
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:06
			as as an OCD counselor and effect
teacher, I would say they have to
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:10
			completely unplug from the sources
of information that they have. So
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			they have to completely stop
reading questions and answers, no
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:17
			fatwas online. No listening to
videos, stop.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			Stop altogether. And this is a
hard advice when I heard it from
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			one of my teachers like as a
recommendation to for someone I
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			was like, because I said like I
have a student who's like this,
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:31
			which I do, tell him to stop
studying. Why? Because you need to
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:35
			be in a sense quarantine from that
is any information that you get
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:39
			your psychological state your
fitrah has been bent actually. And
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			any information that you get, no
matter how many fatwas I'm going
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			to give you how many Roxas you're
going to bend it and defend it and
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			get into more OCD.
