Someone asked Prophet Mohammad for a simple advice that he could follow. His answer was, “Do not get angry.”
The Prophet also said: “The strongest among you is not the one with most power or the one in authority or the one with the most money. It is the one who can control his Anger.”
The Prophet also gave some practical advice as how to control anger. He advised Muslims that when they are angry, to make ablution or wash their face, forearms, and feet with water. Also, that if they are standing, to sit down, and if they are sitting, to lie down.Prophet Muhammad said: “Seven kinds of people will be sheltered under the shade of God on the Day of Judgment. They are:
A just ruler
A young man who passed his youth in the worship, and service of God; One whose heart is attached to the mosque;Two people who love each other for the sake of God; A man who is invited to sin but declines, saying: “I fear God”;One who spends his charity in secret, without making a show; And one who remembers God in solitude so that his eyes overflow.
The Prophet also said: “A believer, through his good Manners, may achieve the status of the one who regularly fasts to please God during the day, and spends the night in prayer.”
