Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Anger Management (1/2) Reference: Al Afnaan an Nadiyyah 7/328. Author: Shaykh Zayd al Madkhalee Topic: Manners A Warning from Anger - no matter the Reason. This is because anger lures its victim into practicing acts that necessitate punishment such as murder, speaking negatively of others, destroying property, abstaining from being good to others and similar issues that anger entices a person to fall into and drives them to accomplish, regressing into sin due to having no patience and forbearance. Anger is the key to the doors of evil, a man approached the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) seeking advice that would benefit him in his religion, rather in all his affairs, he advised him saying: Do not get angry. The man repeated the question and the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) repeated the response saying; Do not get angry. This was reported by al Bukhaaree in the Hadeeth of Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that a man approached the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) saying; Advise me. The Messenger responded: Do not get angry. The man continued to repeat the question and the Messenger kept repeating: Do not become angry. There are methods for anger management in the noble legislated texts: What was authentically reported in the two Saheehs on the authority of Salmaan ibn Sard (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: Two men starting insulting each other in the presence of the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) while we were seated; one of them was insulting the other angrily while his face was red, so the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) said: I seek refuge from the accursed Shaytaan. Others said to him: Do you not hear what the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) is saying? He responded: I am not a madman! Al Imaam Ahmad and at Tirmidhee reported a Hadeeth on the authority of Abu Saeed that the Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) said in his Khutbah: Indeed anger is a scorching coal seated in the hearts of the children of Adam, do you not see the redness of his eyes and the swelling of his cheeks? So whoever senses any of these symptoms should attach himself to the earth. The wording is for at Tirmidhee. Al Imaam Ahmad and Abu Dawood reported the Hadeeth of Abu Waa-il who said: We were sitting with Urwah ibn Muhammad when a man entered and said things to him that angered him. When he became angry he stood up and left, he returned having performed ablution and said: My father narrated to me that my grandfather (who was a Companion) narrated to him that the Messenger of Allaah (salla Allaahu alihi wa sallam) said: Indeed anger is from the Shaytaan, and indeed Shaytaan was created from fire, and indeed fire is put out with water. So if any of you were to become angry, perform ablution. Likewise, there are texts praising the person who is able to control himself, represses his anger and forgive whoever angered him. Allaah the Elevated said: {and when they are angry, they forgive} The Prophet (salla Allaahu alihi wa sallam) said: The strong one is not the one who can wrestle others rather it is the one who can control himself when angry. Umar ibn Abdul Azeez stated: Successful indeed is one who safeguards himself from desires, anger and greed. ___________________________________________________ So true are these words, may we practice what we learn...Ameen
