Is the feeling of intense grief and pain over the state of Muslims and the injustice inflicted upon them, and the inability to overcome this grief, considered something that angers Allah Almighty and contradicts the patience required of a Muslim, and what should be done to deal with these feelings?
This sadness you feel over the condition of Muslims is a sign of true faith and fear of Allah. It is a healthy phenomenon, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The likeness of the believers in their mutual love, mercy, and compassion is like that of a body; if one part of it suffers, the rest of the body calls out to it in sleeplessness and fever."
However, this sadness must be regulated by the so that it does not lead to what is unlawful or prevent one from fulfilling obligations. These feelings should be invested to produce positive effects, such as reminding those around you of the concerns of Muslims, assisting them with supplication and charity, and striving to please Allah, because acts of obedience are a cause of blessings, and sins are a cause of affliction. You should also remember that Allah wrongs not people at all, and that martyrs and those afflicted have immense honor with Allah.
