What is the ruling on one who is struck by a calamity and complains within himself without voicing it?

Question:
If a trial befalls a person and his soul complains and he is tempted by whispers, but he does not voice it, is that permissible?
Answer:
If he commits actions or utterances that indicate his complaint, then what is in his heart is not held against him until he acts. Allah has excused for His community mistakes, forgetfulness, and what their souls suggest to them, as long as they do not speak or act upon it.
