And if an evil whisper comes to you from Satan then seek refuge with Allah. Verily, He is All-Hearer, All-Knower.

(Qur’an 7:200)

The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) advised one of his Companions, saying, “Don’t be angry…” He repeated this three times. And when a man became angry in his presence, the Prophet ordered him to seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan.

And I seek refuge with You, My Lord! Lest they may attend [or come near] me.

(Qur ‘an 23:98)

Verily, those who are Al-Muttaqoon [the pious], when an evil thought comes to them from Satan, they remember [Allah], and [indeed] they then see [aright].

(Qur’an 7:201)

Anger is one of the factors that cause depression and sadness. The following are some of the ways of controlling your anger:

1. Combat feelings of anger as if anger itself is your enemy.

And those who repress anger, and who pardon men; verily, Allah loves the good-doers.

(Qur’an 3:134)

And when they are angry, they forgive.

(Qur’an 42:37)

And when the anger of Moses was appeased, he took up the Tablets…

(Qur’an 7:154)

2. Make ablution. Since anger is an ember of the fire, it can be extinguished by water.

3. If you are standing, sit; and if you are sitting, lie down.

4. When you are angry, remain silent.
