Complaining about someone stealing
Question
A few days ago I've seen a cousin of mine stealing another cousins watch. And I complained to his mother because this cousin of mine is going astray. He got angry with me. Now I feel bad, thinking I've committed a sin by complaining. So did I actually commit a sin
N.B It's not the first time he stole.
Answer
This is not a sin.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
