Crying over the inability to have children and complaining about the divine decree

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We have five minutes left to review the faxes we received in the name of the Honorable Shaykh Salih. The sister Umm Hanay says that she has been married for twenty years and has not had any children. She often resorts to crying in her room. She wants the Honorable Shaykh to say: Should I be indifferent to this world? Is this a complaint against Allah's decree regarding the inability to have children?

Answer:
No, her feeling regret over not having children is not a problem. She should make du'a' (supplication) and increase her du'a'. She should also seek medical treatment if there is a cure for this condition; she should see doctors and not despair of Allah's mercy. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
