Is it permissible to curse the workers who wronged you and did not pay you your wages?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I was working with two people for eight months, and they wronged me, and I did not receive my wages from them. So, if I make a supplication against them in the Sacred Mosque, is this supplication forbidden or permissible? And if I make a supplication, what should I do?

Answer:
You are the one who left it. They did not prevent you from it, according to your question. But if you were angry with them and left it, they did not prevent you from it. Go and take your wages. If you left it, then you are the one who is in the wrong. Do not make a supplication against them because they did not withhold your right. The mere fact that you were angry with them and left your right with them is not acceptable. Go and take your right. If they prevented you, then they have wronged you. If they gave it to you, then they have not wronged you.
