ANSWER:

No problem, this is a natural human tendency to remember the loved one and cry for them, however bearing it with more patience will be more rewardable for you in the hereafter.

I lost my daughter about 2 years ago. I don’t complain to Allah in the least bit, but say “Alhamdulillah” and “Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun”. Yet at times I feel saddened (but not wailing). Is it okay to cry for her? I’m worried that otherwise I may be considered unmerciful since the Prophet (SAW) did cry when he lost his children.
