Assalamu alaikum. I seriously need some advice on a few issues I have at this point in time. I've tried to keep it short and concise. Please answer all of the questions and don't just give sites or other references, I would like your opinion on these as well. I greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
1. P*ornography and masturbation
I have posted a thread about this before and have received valuable help, but to my deep regret have fallen into this trap again and again despite my attempts to finally put an end to these sins. I have repented many times and taken an oath two times but I feel so weak as if I'm unable to stop these sins. I have looked over this issue numerous times and have found where I go wrong. It is when I'm at home alone that I fall into this trap of watching p*rn and doing masturbation. How can I finally put an end to this? What is the permanent solution? I have been told fasting helps but I'm vulnerable when I'm alone, that's the root of the problem.
2. Lowering of my gaze
Living in Australia it's increasingly hard to keep to the deen as Australian culture is all about showing off your body wearing bikini's etc... Where ever I go there is always a few women wearing short skirts, mini jeans, tight tops and other provocative clothing. I always seem to look at these girls despite knowing that it is forbidden to do so. Sometimes I don't look at all or only take a quick glance and look away but most of the time I keep looking at these women. How can I lower my gaze and stop this sin once and for all?
3. Swearing and ill talk
It is common to hear people swearing where ever I go even if it is as a joke or in excitement etc. I know this is a sin and to be honest since coming to Islam I have made massive progress in limiting this ill talk that I speak. Also people talk about women teachers at school and how they'd like to -- you know... and all of that. How can I stop swearing as well as any other ill talk?
4. Study habits
Overall I'm good across the board with my subjects. Mainly it is maths that I am not doing so well in as I'm not committed since I have no interest in it. I posted a thread about this as well and got some good advice but I'm not quite sure on how I can get interested in maths then do well at it. How can I improve my study habits in subjects that I don't like such as maths and do well in them?
