A brother has been plagued with masturbation, the shows he watches to do this sin have clear shirk, but he doesn't watch them cause he enjoys the kufr, but because they contain images which arouse his desire. He is afraid he apostated by watching them, is this true? He regretfully asks how to quit.

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan

How will you stop if you don't lower your gaze? You must quit this immediately even if it is not kufr. Also, if you suffer from waswas, seek medical attention.
