Does a person curse his oppressor, or does he remain silent and leave the matter to Allah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a person is afflicted as a result of oppression, should he curse the one who oppressed him and continue to do so, or should he remain silent and leave his affair to Allah?
The Shaykh : This question is good. In reality, the matter differs from one oppressor to another. If this oppressor’s oppression is a sudden lapse, he should not curse him, but rather pray that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) guides him. However, if it is his habit and his constant practice to oppress people, then he should pray for him with one of two prayers: that Allah guides him, or that He cuts short his life.
The student : Or that He takes him...
The Shaykh : Cut short, cut short, that is better.
The student: Hehehe.
