‎السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته How can we best deal with people in our environment who suffer from extreme waswas? I don’t want to ‘fuel’ the waswas but fear that if I don’t give a ‘logical’ explanation to concerns and ignore it, the waswas will just make them go crazy / leave islam all together

Well, they should seek out medical professional help. This is something you are not able to solve, so just help them ti seek trustworthy Muslim doctors.
