The ruling on one who is overcome by crying and wails

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a woman is overcome by crying and wails, what is the ruling?

Answer:
Wailing is not permissible, but tears in the eyes and sadness in the heart are permissible; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when his son Ibrahim died:
The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say except what pleases our Lord, O Ibrahim ! Indeed we are grieved by your separation.العين تدمع والقلب يحزن ولا نقول إلا ما يرضي الرب، وإنا لفراقك يا إبراهيم لمحزونون
Sahih al-Bukhari 1303
