Kill Anger,before it kills You!

             

Anger is one of the most useless emotions of all and probably one of the biggest killers as it sprouts many health hazards e.g. high blood pressure,ulcers,rashes,hearts palpitations,hypertension,arthritis,and even heart disease. Yet many people use various arguments to rationalize their anger. The most common argument is: "I am human being". Well, let me little blunt here. Anger has nothing to do with being a human, rather the opposite is often true, Anger is inhuman. Let me clarify it further. Let me ask you what would a dog do, if you step on its tail or hit it? Well, if it was a big and powerful dog, there is a great likelihood, it will bite you. Why? If you make a powerful animal furious, it will harm you to protect or get even with you.

If someone hits a man and he becomes furious and retaliates what will be the difference between an animal and a human being? Animal acts or reacts instinctively, Whereas human being can choose their acts or reaction. Many people prefer acting on instinct. There are many choices available to a person who is hit:

1) Hit back

2) Injure severely

3) Kill

4)Ask to why did he/she  hit him?

5)Feel sorry at the ignorance of the one who hit

6)Talk it out and clarify what caused this

7)Ignore it

9)Forgive him

         He is not stronger or powerful who

            throws people down, but he is the 

   stronger among us who master himself

                  when angry.

Islam strictly prohibits anger because it causes the same harm to man as cause liquor and drugs. It destroys our ability to make rational and wise choices, which is an important differentiating factor between human beings and animals. Most people continue carrying this useless emotion with them that would do them more harm than the one they are carrying it for. Most common forms of anger in our society are:

1. Angry, when one is stuck in the traffic.

2. Angry when one is getting late from work.

3. Angry about government policies.

4. Angry about customer, boss, teacher or colleague.

5. Angry with others if they hold a different point of view.

6. Angry when children or spouse don't behave the way one wants them to.

7. Angry if one has a lot of work to do.

8. Angry if one has nothing to do.

9. Angry if there is no body to talk with.

10.Angry about weather.

11.Angry about denied promotion.

12.Angry about lack of peace around.

Almost everyone is angry about something. Many might take it as an overstatement. It is so because many believe physical violence is the only form of anger. The following behaviors also fall into the category of anger:

Being orally abusive

Using aggressive words like , ''Kill him'',  ''I hate him'', etc.

Being sarcastic.

  Verily anger corrupts faith like as the 

juice of bitter plants corrupts.
