Anger Control
Sulayman ibn Sard said: "I was sitting with the Prophet (Salallahu Alaihi
Wasallam), and two men were slandering one another. One of them was red in the
face, and the veins on his neck were standing out. The Prophet (Salallahu
Alaihi Wasallam) said:
"I
know a word which, if he were to say it, what he feels would go away. If he
said," I seek refuge with Allah from the Shaytaan," what he feels (i.e. his
anger) would go away.""
[Al-Bukhari, al-Fath, 6/337]
Messenger of Allah (Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam) is reported to have said:
"If
any of you becomes angry, let him keep silent."
[Imam Ahmad, al-Musnad,1/329]
Abu
Darr narrated that the Prophet (Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said:
"If
any of you becomes angry and he is standing, let him sit down, so his anger will
go away; if it does not go away, let him lie down."
[Musnad Ahmad,5/152 & Saheeh al Jaami,no.694]
