True Strength

asul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wasallam) said: “True strength is not
he ability to never be knocked down by anybody; but to be able to
ontrol one’s anger, especially when a person has the ability to act
n it.” [Muslim]
That is why we see that people with weak characters suppress their
nger when dealing with their superiors but take it out on those
eaker than them. A weak man will take his frustrations out on his
amily, a woman on her children, the rich on the poor. Giving free
ein to one’s anger results only in crime against Allah’s creatures.
t is natural to feel anger in certain situations but the successful
erson is he who is able to control the expression of his anger. Not
ll crimes in Islam are recognized as crimes in secular law, but what
atters to a Muslim is how their action is viewed by Allah. Anger is
ustified when the crime is against Allah and his Messenger, but even
hen it is best handled with a cool mind.
Hazrat Ali (radi Allahu anhu) said: “A moment of patience in a moment
f anger prevents a thousand moments of regret.”
