What is the status of a Muslim girl who doubts the existence of Allah Almighty and performs acts of worship such as prayer and fasting? Is she considered a believer or a disbeliever?

Her fear of misguidance and entering Hellfire, and her adherence to her religious obligations, are evidence of her faith.
