About this study
Official title: Application of Traditional Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy (TIIP) in the Treatment of OCD Scrupulosity / Waswasa
The goal of the clinical trial is to determine whether the Islamic Workbook of Scrupulosity treats scrupulosity in adults. The main question is whether patients show fewer scrupulosity symptoms after receiving the workbook treatment, as measured by various self-report scales. Participants will be divided into three groups; the first group will receive the intervention after the baseline measurement. The second group will receive treatment 6 weeks after baseline. The last group will serve as a control group. The groups will be randomly assigned. All groups will have symptoms measured at baseline, 6 weeks after baseline, and 12 weeks after baseline.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Islamically integrated cognitive behavioral interventionBehavioural
Also called Emotional Interventions, Spiritual Interventions
This intervention includes Islamically integrated psychoeducation for scrupulosity. We also included Islamically integrated cognitive and behavioral interventions. The cognitive intervention included spirituality as part of a healthy psyche. In addition to cognitive and behavioral interventions, we included emotional interventions, especially the two-chair technique. We also included spiritual interventions such as prayers, dhikrs, and expressing gratitude to God.

Participants were randomly assigned to this group. Receives: Behavioral: Islamically integrated cognitive behavioral intervention |
| Delayed Workbook Intervenion Group | Active comparator | This group started 6 weeks later than the first experimental group. The Islamic scrupulosity workbook was administered for 12 weeks. Participants were randomly assigned to this group. Receives: Behavioral: Islamically integrated cognitive behavioral intervention |
| Control Group | No intervention | This group was used as a control group of the study. They didn't receive treatment until the end of the study. Participants were assigned to this group randomly. Participants in this group received the treatment after the study. |
