one day she walked into his bedroom and she saw that he was on his iPod and his back was to her and she saw that on his iPod he was watching pornography so when she and her and husband she and her husband investigated they found out that this boy had been watching pornography every single day for two years every single day from the ages of 10 to 12 this boy had been watching pornography and I know the story of this ten-year-old boy who was on the hips track he was memorizing Quran and his mother was thrilled that's all she ever wanted was for one of her children to memorize Quran and her son started memorizing Surah after Surah after Surah and he was totally like yes I want to be a Hafiz the his school that the program that he was a part of all of the hip students were given iPods to help them memorize Quran so he used the iPod all the time while walking outside while in the car while in his bedroom or around the house memorizing his suit as and the mom was thrilled all of a sudden this sun just lost it seemed like it was all of a sudden but it was gradual the son lost interest in memorizing Quran and he just told his mom I can't do it anymore I don't want to memorize Quran and the mom was heartbroken she was like what happened you know she felt like maybe he got nuzzled or eyeinged you know the evil eye and so but she told him okay just keep working at it but he was like no I'm not interested in memorizing Quran one day she walked into his bedroom and she saw that he was on his iPod and his back was to her and she saw that on his iPod he was watching pornography so when she and her and husband she and her husband investigated they found out that this boy had been watching pornography every single day for two years every single day from the ages of 10 to 12 this boy had been watching pornography he is hopelessly addicted it is one of the most tragic stories because I've been involved with the family you know trying to help and and just be there and this boy is much older now and he's still addicted it's um the the parents were really smart they immediately got him into therapy they got him into um uh and there's actually therapy a program now for Muslims called purify your gays so if there's anyone struggling with it purify your gaze as a program and when she first approached them when he was 12 years old they said no we only work with adults and um inshallah your son will be fine you know whatever and and so years went by he's not fine and all sorts of problems come about from it this boy has been suicidal because there's so many times he's tried to quit pornography and he has not been able to and he keeps going back to it and so he despairs and he starts to feel like Allah can never forgive him so they have him in therapy but not only do they have him in therapy for his pornography addiction but they also have him in spiritual therapy they have him in a therapy with the Sheikh who's there to help him and remind him of Allah's Mercy remind him why he can't despair remind him that Allah is using this addiction just to break you Allah is showing you that he's the master and you're the slave and you have to just turn to Allah completely just helping him that way but the thing about pornography addiction which people don't realize is studies show first and foremost that most addiction happens between ages of 10 and 12. the other thing is they've actually done brain scans actual brain scans on children who are addicted to pornography and they have found that the hard wiring of the brain the actual shape of the brain changes it actually changes it there's a physical effect of pornography addiction and they said that the high that people get from watching pornography is the same high that people get from using cocaine and heroin so it's like being addicted to cocaine and heroin so his parents are treating it like an addiction now that they don't judge their son anymore and recently the mom told me after years of trying to deal with this and they have a very open relationship with their son the son will come to them and say Mom Dad it's been a month I haven't watched pornography and they'll be like wonderful alhamdulillah then he'll come and say it's been two months I haven't watched any pornography and they'll be really happy for him and then he'll come and say I watched pornography I couldn't help it I'm sorry Join this channel to support our work: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHQxZVwMCR7EbL1NGkIStpg/join THE SUNNAH CHANNEL Social Media Pages Instagram: https://instagram.com/thesunnahchannel Twitter: https://twitter.com/thesunnahchanel Facebook: https://facebook.com/thesunnahchannel PLEASE NOTE: Any of the views expressed by the speakers do not necessarily represent the views of The Sunnah Channel or any other projects it may have or intend to do.
