The answer

We previously discussed obsessive doubts in creed and how to treat them. It is recommended to supplicate frequently for the afflicted sister and to give charity with the intention of her healing, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Cure your sick with charity." Also, her remaining alone might be a reason for Satan to overpower her, so it is advised to accompany righteous people, for the Prophet prohibited solitude. There is no objection to psychological treatment. As for her question about the people of Gaza, we have explained that Allah's decree unfolds with perfect wisdom, and we mentioned His saying, the Almighty: "He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned."
