ANGER: TEN WAYS TO DEFEAT IT

1 - Seek refuge with Allah from the Devil (ANGER AND WRATH.) :

When someone is angry, mad, and reaches a state of having wrath against any person, he should make a special Du'a. In doing so he will cool down . It is reported that the Messenger of Allah said (narrated by Sulaiman Ibn Sard and reported by Bukhari and Muslim) that while Sulaiman was with the Prophet , two persons were blaming each other. The face of one became red and his jugular veins swelled. the Prophet said. I know a statement if he or she say's it then the person with anger will cool down.
The person with anger should say : "I SEEK REFUGE IN ALLAH FROM SATAN THE OUTCAST."

Sulayman bin Sard narrated:

"I was sitting with the Prophet, when two men began slandering one another. One of them was red in the face, and the veins on his neck were standing out. The Prophet 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 Devil," what he feels would go away.'

The Messenger of Allah said:

"If a man gets angry and says: "I seek refuge with Allah," his anger will go away."
['Sahih al-Jami'; # 695]


2 - Remain silent:

The Messenger of Allah said:

"If any of you becomes angry, let him keep silent."

3 - Sit down or lie down:

"Abu Dharr was taking his camels to drink at a trough that he owned, when some other people came along and said to one another: "Who can compete with Abu Dharr in bringing animals to drink and make his hair stand on end?" A man said: "I can." So, he brought his animals and competed with Abu Dharr and ended up breaking the trough.Abu Dharr was standing when he saw this, so, he sat down, then he laid down. Someone asked him: "O Abu Dharr, why did you sit down then lie down?" He said: "The Messenger of Allah said: "If any of you becomes angry and he is standing, let him sit down, so that his anger will go away. If iit does not go away, let him lie down."
[Reported in the 'Musnad' of Ahmad (5/152) and 'Sahih al-Jami' (694)]

al-Imam al-Khattabi said: "One who is standing is in a position to strike and destroy, while the one who is sitting is less likely to do that, and the one who is lying down can do neither. It is possible that the Prophet told the angry person to sit down or lie down so that he would not do something that he would later regret, and Allah Knows best."
['Ma'alim as-Sunan'; 5/141]

4. Smile:

By looking from the advise given by our beloved Prophet Muhammed we shouldn't become anger and furious. If we remember the advise and saying of our beloved Prophet Muhammed then the person becoming angry will control his anger.
Anas: (Allah be pleased with him) reported that the messenger of Allah Muhammad said:
"Who so takes up his tongue as treasure Allah will keep his secrets concealed and who so restrains his anger Allah will with hold his punishment on the resurrection day and who so ascribes excuse to Allah will accept his excuse.
So by reading this we should refrain from becoming anger. Because anger destroys one faith. The person in anger forgets where he is and says anything which he regrets after."

5 - Remember the advice of the Prophet:

Abu Hurayrah narrated:

"A man said to the Prophet: "Advise me." He said: "Do not become angry." The man repeated his request several times, and each time the Prophet said to him: "Do not become angry."
['Fath al-Bari'; 10/456]

According to another narration, the man later said: "I thought about what the Prophet said, and I realized that anger combines all kinds of evil."

6 - Remember the high status of those who control themselves:

The Messenger of Allah said:

"The strong man is not the one who can overpower others. Rather, the strong man is the one who controls himself when he gets angry."

Anas bin Malik narrated :

"The Messenger of Allah passed by some people who were wrestling. He asked: "What is this?" They said: "So-and-so is the strongest; he can beat anybody." The Messenger of Allah then said: "Shall I not tell you who is even stronger then him? The man who, when he is mistreated by another, controls his anger, has defeated his own devil and the devil of the one who made him angry."
['Fath al-Bari'; 10/519]

The Messenger of Allah said:

"Do not become angry, and Paradise is yours."


8 - Remember that resisting anger is one of the signs of righteousness:

{"And march forth in the way to forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Paradise as wide as the heavens and the earth, prepared for the righteous; those who spend in prosperity and in adversity, repress anger, and pardon men. Verily, Allah loves the good-doers."}
[Sourate N°3 The Family of Imran Al 'Imran Aya n°134]

  • I loved this video. I came here because I was searching for videos on how to deal with anger after a break up. This video actually helped me a little. I'm not a Muslim but I'll say it any way. May Allah bless you.

  • @957Chatterton Much appreciated for your kind comment, May Allah bless you too, guide you to Islam and make this trial and all test in life ease.

  • Very important topic! LOL..today, someone called me a "fascist", "hypocrite" and some British insult I didn't understand that started with "stupid". And that was only because I called Obama "the lesser evil." His username and profile indicated he was interested in drugs. He had written that he'd learned through using drugs that "Love is All". I told him if he really wanted to learn about that Islam would probably be a better bet than drugs, as they clearly hadn't taught him to see his own

  • @givebirthathome Thank you very much for your time watching it and commenting.
