Complaining When a Calamity Strikes
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Abu Ibrahīm, who has a set of questions. The first question begins with complaining: Is it permissible to complain when a misfortune befalls a person, such as poverty, a calamity, or something else?
Answer:
It is not permissible to complain about the divine decree and destiny of Allah. Rather, it is obligatory to be patient and make supplication. Instead of complaining, he should call upon Allah to remove what has befallen him and to provide for him. Allah is near and responsive, Blessed and Exalted is He. Yes.
