Sahih Muslim 2610a (Book 45, Hadith 143) #13721
Controlling Anger Through Seeking Refuge in Allah

SUMMARY: This hadith is about how to control one's anger and the power of seeking refuge in Allah from Satan.

Sulaiman b. Surad reported that two persons abused each other in the presence of Allah's Apostle and the eyes of one of them became red as embers and the veins of his neck were swollen. Thereupon Allah's Messenger said: I know of a wording, if he were to utter that, his fit of rage (would be no more and that wording is): I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the accursed. The person said: Do you find any madness in me? Ibn al-'Ala' said: Do you see it? And he made no mention of the person.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ صُرَدٍ، قَالَ اسْتَبَّ رَجُلاَنِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ فَجَعَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا تَحْمَرُّ عَيْنَاهُ وَتَنْتَفِخُ أَوْدَاجُهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي لأَعْرِفُ كَلِمَةً لَوْ قَالَهَا لَذَهَبَ عَنْهُ الَّذِي يَجِدُ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ وَهَلْ تَرَى بِي مِنْ جُنُونٍ قَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلاَءِ فَقَالَ وَهَلْ تَرَى ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الرَّجُلَ

Seek refuge with Allah when feeling overwhelmed by emotions

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of controlling one's anger and how to do so. It is narrated by Sulaiman b. Surad that two people were arguing with each other in front of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and one of them became so angry that his eyes turned red and his veins swelled up. The Prophet ﷺ then advised him to seek refuge with Allah from Satan, which would help him calm down. By doing this, he would be able to control his anger instead of letting it take over him completely. This hadith teaches us that we should always try our best to remain calm even when faced with difficult situations or arguments, as it is better for us both physically and spiritually if we can keep our emotions under control rather than letting them get out of hand. We should also remember that seeking refuge in Allah from Shaytan can help us stay away from negative thoughts or feelings which could lead us astray if left unchecked.
