Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding complaining to people about an illness that has afflicted a person in his body, is this illness that befalls a person, or this complaining to people, is it permissible?
Answer:
No, this is not permissible; it is disliked or forbidden; because it is from despair, and the created being has nothing in his hand, so you are patient with this, and you do not complain except if this person is a treating doctor, so you inform him of what pains you in order for him to treat it and look into it.
