Rabbi a’oodhu bika min hamazaathi al-shshayaatheeni wa ‘aoodhu bika rabbi an yahdhuroon

 

(My Lord, I seek refuge and protection with You from the evil suggestions of the devils, and I seek protection with You from their presence around me).

 

Imam Ghazali teaches us that we are not accountable for mental chattering; however, we are responsible for thoughts that we nurture or upon which you dwell.

 

So, ask yourself are these thoughts mere mental chatter which you do not dwell on; or are they more than that or ideas you focus. If the latter is the case, then you are accountable; you ought to repent and ask forgiveness of Allah.

 

You may refer to the previous answer posted above on some of the Du’as you should read.

 

Almighty Allah knows best.
