The virtue of patience with the decrees of Allah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q267: The questioner: Umm Yasser from Khobar says: I am ill, and sometimes I cry over the state I have reached after my illness. Does this crying mean objecting to Allah the Exalted and being dissatisfied with His decree? This action is beyond my control. Also, does talking to close ones about the illness fall under that?
A267: Crying merely from pain does no harm and is not prohibited, because it is not by the person's choice. You said that this is beyond your control, so it does no harm, if Allah wills. However, patience and endurance are undoubtedly better. Informing a close one or someone else about the illness in order to seek treatment and medicine is permissible, or doing so in order for them to supplicate for your recovery is also permissible.
