Dealing with the person who has obsessive doubts who rubs his hands during wudu'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: If I see one of the people who have obsessive doubts rubbing his hands excessively during wudu', what should I do?

Answer:
Teach him the Sunnah. Teach him that the Sunnah is to wash his hands three times before wudu', and then perform wudu'. Does he not refrain from going beyond that? He should not go beyond the three. Yes.
