I get bad thoughts when I offer prayer
Assalumulaikum !
Iam a 15 years girl. I don't think so I am a bad girl . I am very good at my studies, I hardly miss any Nimaz (prayer) I never watch porn but I don't know from a few days naked men pictures are coming in my mind, sometimes I think about naked women and sex too, I am not in any relationship nor have I done intercourse. But yes I do know about porn.
I try a lot to change my mind but they come in my mind especially when I am offering my prayer! I am really confused and worried.
I would be waiting for your response

Of course this is Shaytan coming to you at these times when you are trying to pray. Some start to think about work during salat, some think about spouses, about frineds, about an idea to make money, sports, etc etc etc. Maybe yours are more sexual because of your age, body changes, friends talks, etc.
You just have to keep focusing. When it happens, say "Aoth billah min alshaytan alrageem", and focus againon salat.
You are not alone in this, we all do lose focus during salat.
May ALLAH guide us, grant us patience, and shower us with his mercy.
If I am correct, it is from ALLAH. If I err it is from me, and I pray ALLAH forgives me. Allah knows best.

Salaam sister, Your problem is common, your at a developing age and shaytan is trying to input wrong so that you deviate from islam as you get older, my advice is before you offer prayer, lightly spit to your left hand side and recite the shahadah, this is because shaytan always stands on our left hand side, and when you spit and recite he will run away and your mind will be clear of these thoughts, another thing is keep your eyes focussed on the point where your head touches the prayer mat, do not move them and so by not changing your line of sight you stay focussed and avoid your mind seeing nearby items or things which could trigger your memory towards those wrong thoughts.
When i was your age, i was similar and i found wearing scent(ithar) helped me focus, because everytime i would smell the scent i would imagine myself infront of the ka'bah, and thoughts could not creep in, since the state of freshness and scent would keep me focussed.
I would recommend you do the above and you be fine inshaAllah.
Hope this helps
Making and seeing Photos, and watching TV is Haram. Looking at Na-Mehram is Haram. so also avoid doing this. Try to think good things. Shaitan is an clear and open enemy of humans. He had made his aim to make every human being Jahanumi ( one who deserves hell ) . Therefore he tries his best efforts to distrack human from the right path and persuade them to do that every single thing that Allah doesn't like..
so you should try to keep ur mind clean as much as possible. Think good, See good, Wish good and Do good. May Allah help you. May Allah give us hidaya..
Salam sis,
I do know how you feel, I felt that too sometimes, but, lemme tell you something tht I did to overcome it. I pictured the word "ALLAH" in my mind. Its so easy. Hope it hepls sis
