THE CURE FOR ANGER

Allaah the Exalted says:

     "And if there comes to you from Satan an evil suggestion,
     then seek refuge in Allaah. Indeed, He is the All-Hearer,
     the All-Knower."
                             [Soorah Fusilat 41:36]


'Umar ibn Hafs told us my father told us Al-'A'mash told us 'Adee ibn Thaabit said, that I heard Sulaymaan ibn Surad - a man from the companions of the Prophet (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) say, "Two men insulted one another in the presence of the Prophet (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam), so one of them became so angered and his anger increased until his face swelled and began to change. Then the Prophet (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:

     "Certainly I know of a word, if someone were to say it,
     indeed whatever they find within themselves will pass."

So a man (Mu'aadh ibn Jabal) proceeded towards him and informed him of the statement of the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) saying, "Seek refuge in Allaah from Satan." Then he responded, "Do you think something is wrong with me? Am I crazy? Go away from me." [317,
