Anger is lawful in cases of religious affair's when its honours are at stake. It is an effective
preventive measure to safeguard the dignity of man. A person who has no anger is called a
coward because he has got no true faith in Allah. The person fears the creation and not the
creator. This doesn't give the right for youngsters to become angry with parents when they don't
get what they want.
If a person doesn't practice Islam, a person disobeys the command of Allah or a person doesn't
listen to his parents then to become angry with such a person can be lawful. But the person
shouldn't become too angry because in Islam extreme anger is unlawful because it creates
opposition and bitterness.
It is undesirable for a pious man to lose his temper, due to jokes, frivolous talks, quarrels,
criticism and greed for wealth.
The real strength of a man lies in controlling his wrath. i.e. Anger.
It is reported in a Hadith on the authority of Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) that the
messenger of Allah (Mohammed (

himself at the time of anger."

Anger is unlawful because it destroys the faith of a man. Bah bin hakim (Allah be please with
him) Reported that the messenger of Allah (peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) . Said:

"But the strong is the one who controls him while in anger."
In another narration by Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him man said to the Prophet
Muhammad (
) Advise me.
). Said :

in case by saying:

But the youngster today have forgotten the teaching of our Prophet Muhammad ( ) there
become angry and furious for small reason like if their parent tell them to do something which
their donut like there say to the parent in anger that I donut what to do it like cleaning the house

Hadrat Anas: (Allah be pleased with him) reported that the messenger of Allah
( Muhammad(
) said:
Who so takes up his tongue as treasure Allah will keep his secrets concealed and who so
restrains his anger Allah will with hold his punishment on the resurrection day and who so
ascribes excuse to Allah will accept his excuse.
So by reading this we should refrain from becoming anger. Because anger destroys one faith.
