Solution to Anger The Prophet of Islam said that if any person becomes angry and he is standing at that time, let him sit down. (Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith No. 4782) If he is speaking, let him be quiet. (Al-Musnad, Vol. 1, p. 329) This means that a person should change the condition he is in. This change of mood will subside his anger. Anger is a fire that burns inside a person as a result of some unpleasant experiences. Anger leads a man to adopt destructive methods, which always turns him into a loser. In such a situation, it is wise to take immediate action to calm down one’s anger. With tact, a person can overcome anger within minutes. But if anger is allowed to linger on, it can do irreparable damage to man. It is natural to get angry. What is bad is failure to control anger. Lack of control over one’s anger is self-defeating. 95. Seeking Refuge from the Devil The Prophet of Islam said, “Satan is your enemy. Whenever you feel that the devil is inciting you, say, ‘O God, I seek refuge in You from the devil’.” (Kanzul Ummal, Hadith No. 22073)
