Control of Anger


In Surah ali-Imran, verse 134, people who control their anger are among those whom Allâh makes a promise to forgive and admit into Paradise. “Those who repress anger and are able to forgive. And Allâh loves those who do good.” The Prophet of Allâh, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, said, “Strength is in the power to control oneself in anger, not in the size of the muscles.” He also said, “Whoever controls his temper while able to retaliate will be called by Allâh before all of His creations and allowed to select from among lovely wide-eyed beauties whomever he desires to be wed with.” (Agreed upon).
