Is it permissible to dislike someone without informing them, while keeping this feeling internal and not discussing it with others?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Not informing someone you dislike of your dislike for them is better, as it prevents animosity and discord, unless there is a benefit in informing them, such as deterring them from a sin. There is no sin in heartfelt dislike as long as it is not acted upon, and there is no accountability for what one thinks to oneself.
