Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

You must repel these whispers, ignore them, and not pay any attention to them.

What came to your mind is nothing, and you are not in a state of Ihram by this at all. Rather, these are nothing but illusions that has nothing to do with reality. Therefore, live your life normally and do not spoil your life and the life of your husband with such illusions and whispers.

It would be better for you to consult a trustworthy psychiatrist.

We ask Allah to cure you.

Allah knows best.
