Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to be treated by a Christian woman?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to be treated by a Christian woman?

The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and I send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow them with excellence until the Day of Judgment:
Yes, it is permissible for a Muslim woman to be treated by a Christian woman, provided that this Christian woman is trustworthy and we are safe from her deceit and deception. If it is possible for the doctor to be Muslim, that is better and more excellent, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist, even though she might please you. وَلَأَمَةٌ مُؤْمِنَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مُشْرِكَةٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَتْكُمْ
[Al-Baqarah 2:221]
