Controlling anger is emphasized through patience and restraining oneself in the Quran. Improving relationships through good actions and forgiveness helps manage anger.
Controlling anger is a significant topic in moral and behavioral training for individuals. In the Holy Quran, Allah emphasizes the importance of refraining from anger and being patient during difficult times. For instance, in Surah Al-Imran, verse 134, Allah states: "And those who spend in [His] cause in both ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allah loves the doers of good." This verse indicates that those who are patient and control their anger are closer to Allah. Thus, to control anger, one must first have self-awareness and identify the cause of their anger. Additionally, during moments of anger, it is advisable to take several deep breaths and focus on regaining calmness. The secret to controlling anger lies in doing good and forgiving others. In Surah Fussilat, verse 34, it is mentioned: "And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; then, the one who between you and him is enmity will be like an old friend." By following these verses and striving for kindness towards others, we can overcome our anger and experience greater tranquility.
And those who spend in [His] cause in both ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allah loves the doers of good.
And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; then, the one who between you and him is enmity will be like an old friend.
