Sexual Desires and How to Control Them in Islam

 It is absolutely normal to have sexual thoughts and urges. However, acting upon these thoughts and urges is forbidden in Islam,  you can only act with your partner (wife)

Some people dont have control because they use excessive consumption of porn, movies, music. Their mind is weak. They think every girl being nice is flirting with them. They live in delusion

“And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquility with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts): Verily in that are Signs for those who reflect.”  (30:21)

The only form of love action acceptable by Allah is 

“The believers are… those who protect their sexual organs except from their spouses… Therefore, whosoever seeks more beyond that [in sexual gratification], then they are the transgressors” (Quran 23, 5-6).

Indulgence in pornography is known to be an addictive habit that perverts the individual’s morals, reduces women to sexual objects and often acts as a catalyst in motivating the individual towards sexual crimes. Scientific research has shown that the viewing of sexual images has a long lasting effect on the brain – much more than the viewing of non-sexual images. These sexual memories are so pronounced that they can last for years and play havoc with the individual’s mind and sexual urge. A person engaging in pornography is more likely to be unsatisfied with their married lives as pornography overpowers the individual with unrealistic fantasies.
