Accepting insurance proceeds : receiving injury compensation from an insurance company

Fatawa Question

Salam Alakum I need some light on my question : I recently got into a car accident. And Alhamdulilah I was not seriously injured. I do have to see the doctor every so often and I have started physiotherapy. My question is : is it Haram if I go after the insurance company (suing them) for the accident ? to me if they gave me all the money in the world it would not bring my health to the way it was. Others tell me to sue them and give the money to the Mosque or to the poor. What do u think is the right thing to do. ?
