  • Surah Yusuf, Verse 86 – Complaining To Others

    Posted by Haroon Shahroom on February 21, 2026 at 8:15 am

    Assalam Aleykum,

    I heard this lecture of Sir Javed ahmed Ghamidi, where he is explaining this verse:

    https://www.youtube.com/live/c2SSLFh5Mw4?t=1148&si=EIVuLJWU1G_Qjoco

    From minute: 19:08 to 21:48.

    My question is:

    does this verse mean that i have to complain only to Allah? It is wrong to complain (about anything) to someone else?

    Like for example: if i want to share/ complain my pain or suffering to my friends, or just talk to them about anything wrong happens to me, it is wrong? Do i have to complain only to Allah?!

    Does this verse mean this? Does Ghamidi sahab said this ? Or I understood it wrong?!

    Please explain.

    Thanks a lot.

    This is about complaining, which one intends only to God. That complaint should not be addressed to anyone other than God.

      Sorry sir, mujhe theek samajh nahi ayi…

      So this is about this particular complaint ?

      Which are complaints one intend only to God? Can you please give some examples, just to understand better.

      So there is nothing wrong about complaining something to someone? Like if something bad happens to me, i can complaint/ share my pain and sufferings to my parents, wife, friends etc..?!

      Thank you…

    To request God to remove your problem with His power، this is a God-specific complaint or request. To complain to others in such a way that gives the impression of desperation or frustration that God has caused to you is not forbidden.

      Okay, So there is nothing bad about complaining/sharing your pain/suffering or difficulties to others, like in general we do, right?!

      Thank you a lot.

      Sorry for bothering you again sir ❤️😅.
