Relating one's problems to someone
Question
It is mentioned in the Quran that:
Verily, I only complain of my grief and sorrow to Allah!
Does it mean that we should not tell people about our problems?
Answer
It is permissible if you feel that the person can bring about some relief to you.
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.
