RECTIFYING UNDESIRABLE INTERNAL ATTRIBUTES: 5 (talk by Mufti Taqi Usmani DB)

 Bringing one’s anger under control, so that it is only expressed in situations in which it is permitted to do so by the Shariah, and not expressing it in situations where it is impermissible to express it, is what one needs to learn from one’s Shaykh. If you get angry from time to time, but you do not know whether you express your anger appropriately or inappropriately, just tell your Shaykh about the situations in which you feel anger, how angry you get, and what do you do under the influence of your anger. He will guide you about whether you are expressing your anger appropriately or not. And if you already know that you get angry unduly and excessively, then tell your Shaykh about your excessive anger, and the situations you express that anger in. The Shaykh will guide you about how to gradually bring that anger under control, and how to use your anger in appropriate situations only. Then follow his advice.
