Anger Management by Quran and Hadith
Anger in any form is devastating to human beings. If one is getting angry on any other,its mean in actual he/she is playing fool with themselves.
According to survey,
- 90% people always remain in anger
- 80% people convicted because of anger
- 80% people get angry on stupid things
Allah (SWT) has differentiated between humans and animals just because of wit and human beings gain edge due to their “Ability to make choice” and in anger people forget to use their brain,they lose their ability of decision, thats why it proves fatal to them. After their ferocity they feel lethargy because they lost their energy just by getting aggressive.
