“…According to Alimadadi et al (2020), following spiritual group psychotherapy for adults with OCD, there was a decrease observed in OCD symptoms, including thought-action fusion, obsessive beliefs, and religious obsessions. In line with the results of the other studies, therapies integrating Islamic values and using cognitive and/or behavioral (ERP) techniques have also showed a relief in the patients' symptoms (Singh and Khan;1997[as cited in Md Rosli et al, 2019; Badri, 2017;Md Rosli et al, 2017). A study in the literature, applying religious strategies into the therapy, used both Y-BOCS and Penn Inventory of Scrupulosity (PIOS) and found that patients' scores of Y-BOCS and PIOS decreased after interventions (Arip et al, 2018).…”

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is one of the most resistant disorders in the field of psychopathology. As this disorder challenges clinicians in pharmacological treatments; In psychotherapies, it brings together resistance in the areas of therapeutic alliance and healing. ERP, which is the gold standard, also fails when a full consensus cannot be achieved in the cognitive process. The Vesvese Treatise, was written for people with religious obsessions. The 4T Model (the first letters of the four cognitive levels in Turkish), adapted from the content of this work, was integrated into the classical treatment rationale of patients with CBT, and by using it in the fields of "formation and source of obsession", "normalization" and "cognitive restructuring", the stage of individualization of the CBT model for the patient was provided on the 4T model. The results obtained in 4 OCD Resistant Cases treated with this method showed that the model made a significant difference especially in the field of "thought-action fusion", and that it was convincing and practical in the "cognitive restructuring" process with the hierarchy of thought it presented.

“…Therefore, it seems ideal to have some modifications in the handling of patients with blasphemous thoughts and religious obsessions, in means of having therapies integrated with their religious beliefs and principles of faith: to successfully overcome religious obsessions and compulsions, without grossly defying the basic ideologies of the patient.

Obsessive–compulsive disorders (OCDs) are one of the top 10 contributors of debilitating medical illnesses and are the fourth most common psychiatric disorder. Blasphemous thoughts, also known as scrupulosity, as an obsessional theme has piqued curiosities long before it was considered a neurosis. Such obsessions may or may not have an accompanying compulsion and comprise 5% of the patients of OCD. The case series is of three patients suffering from repetitive, intrusive, ego-dystonic, and distressing blasphemous thoughts, which are extremely distressing to them, rendering them unable to perform any other activity. The symptoms also indicate the presence of comorbid depressive and anxiety disorders, developing secondary to the blasphemous thoughts. Inadequate knowledge in this subtype of OCD mandates the need for more studying and research, especially with new texts suggesting the implementation of faith-assisted psychotherapy in addition to the conventional psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy.

Abstract“Scrupulosity” is a common but understudied subtype of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) characterized by religious obsessions and compulsions. Although scrupulosity is a common manifestation of OCD, it has not been adequately addressed in treatment studies. The aim of this study was to understand the conceptual nuances of scrupulosity, its diagnosis, the unique differences in conceptualization and interventions during its treatment, the specific tools needed to monitor the prognosis of the pathology, and the limitations of existing studies through a systematic review. Following PRISMA guidelines, a literature search was conducted, and 13 relevant studies were found in Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, EbscoHost + Ulakbim, Wiley Online Library, ScienceDirect, Taylor & Francis Online, and Web of Science databases. Two researchers independently rated the included articles using the MMAT and then met to compare the ratings. Disagreements were resolved through discussion and consensus was reached. There was a general lack of clarity in the conceptualization, diagnosis, and measurement of the severity of scrupulosity, and the content of religious or cultural interventions in the studies was not always clear. For future studies, further clarification, and systematization of the phenomenological features of scrupulosity and related epidemiological and empirical/experimental treatment research are needed.
