Question:
The questioner asks: Shaykh, what is the cure for anger? And if a person pronounces divorce while angry, what is the ruling?
Answer:
The cure for anger is to say, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan." One says, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan," as in the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Fussilat 41:36].
And in the other verse:[Al-A'raf 7:200] The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw two men quarreling, and one of them became so angry that his eyes turned red and his neck veins swelled. So he said (peace and blessings be upon him): Mishkat al-Masabih 2418 They went and told the man what they had heard from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan," and the anger left him. Yes.
