Practicality of a Philosophy

This is with reference to the write up ” Stop Complaining” by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, in the April 2014 issue of Islamic Voice.
All countries have laws and courts for justice and guidance. Suppose as a real life example, a neighbor did not leave legal space of one meter, as instructed by the Municipal Corporation of the town while constructing his house. Now this space is meant for light, safety, security and air. But the neighbour believes that he is right and has not violated any rules. I wonder how Maulana Wahiduddin Khan’s philosophy of “stop complaining” will work here and how practical will it be.
