Episode Notes

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves on the issues with controlling anger and how we should strive to abstain from getting angry.

When someone benefits from the goodness of religion, of this Deen, they get what they are supposed to get out of Salah and they want to share that goodness with others. But others have no appreciation of that. This is one of the main causes of getting angry.

What are some other occasions when we get angry? When we have expectations and Whenever we have expectations and they are not met, we get upset. People also get angry because they feel that justice is not being served. The lack of justice makes someone get angry.

All of these are legitimate kinds of anger. 

But what should that anger turn into? According to our Deen, it should turn into Sabr. It’s a feeling that goes through our heart and our heart should convert that into Sabr.  Now when our heart is not connected to Allah then Sabr is out. Then that anger comes out in other ways.

So we should exercise patience and there is a greater need to learn how to be patient. We need to learn how to take that anger and transform it into ancient intelligence. We must respond to ignorance with intelligence and should not turn into impulsive people. We cannot let our anger get the best of us.we must protect ourselves from that evil deed of arrogance.

00:00:46--> 00:00:48

When I will be diving into the accuracy

00:00:53--> 00:00:54

of the data

00:00:55--> 00:00:56

Hello, have you ever

00:00:58--> 00:00:58

wondered

00:01:04--> 00:01:04

what

00:01:11--> 00:01:13

you can offer other people?

00:01:27--> 00:01:28

Me Have you ever committed?

00:01:51--> 00:01:52

Now

00:01:54--> 00:01:54

what we'll do

00:01:56--> 00:01:56

one

00:01:58--> 00:01:58

last thing I

00:02:03--> 00:02:04

would like to find out

00:02:05--> 00:02:11

what items you think of the market in a lot of people, a whole

00:02:12--> 00:02:15

lot safety machine offering something in the

00:02:20--> 00:02:20

end

00:02:37--> 00:02:39

a brief reminder, I'd like to

00:02:40--> 00:02:54

share some thoughts with you that I hope to benefit from myself. I hope that they are all of you as well, in regards to a very dangerous, and at the same time, a very natural sentiment all of us have. And that is our anger.

00:02:55--> 00:03:02

Anger is very natural. It's not an unnatural sentiment for us to get angry in many occasions that make you angry.

00:03:04--> 00:03:24

Sometimes those things are small, and sometimes they're big. But this feeling is rooted in something else. It's really something else. And if it's not something healthy can become very vicious. It's really a symptom of a much larger disease. I chose this passage to share with you because this is a passage in which the Bible

00:03:26--> 00:03:28

is giving advice to his son.

00:03:29--> 00:03:33

And there are other occasions when others are talking to sons, but

00:03:36--> 00:03:37

you know, a lot of stuff.

00:03:43--> 00:03:46

So this idea of a father giving advice to the son is not unique,

00:03:48--> 00:03:51

multiple times, but something we should pay attention to.

00:03:52--> 00:03:58

And you think of this picture to see as an older man and his wisdom and wisdom

00:04:00--> 00:04:03

is giving advice to young people how

00:04:07--> 00:04:24

you got older and you find yourself and you'll notice something. As you get older wisdom kicks in. If you are fortunate enough to benefit from wisdom, what happens also is patience. And what you'll notice in your sons and your young men growing up

00:04:26--> 00:04:26

and they will

00:04:28--> 00:04:42

easily so one of the very important pieces of advice for a young man to get from someone who has wisdom above his father is for him to calm down himself and check to control himself. So with that in mind,

00:04:45--> 00:04:47

let's see some of the things he tells them to do first.

00:04:56--> 00:04:59

This is a conversation with the Messenger of Allah

00:05:01--> 00:05:06

So this is not just using the official sense of the five games, I will reveal to our messenger,

00:05:07--> 00:05:14

every messenger was given their own form of slot. And finally, the protection of it is anonymous, and there's some love for it.

00:05:15--> 00:05:17

But this digital sense,

00:05:19--> 00:05:22

which means connection, maintain a connection with,

00:05:24--> 00:05:29

you know, practically this discussion to the sun, this council began

00:05:31--> 00:05:32

to shift with a lot

00:05:34--> 00:05:41

of associations with ultimate crime of distancing yourself from a law by putting someone else in between yourself.

00:05:43--> 00:05:46

And practically, practically, not just theoretical

00:05:48--> 00:05:49

ideological.

00:05:50--> 00:05:52

One has to be connected to a law.

00:05:54--> 00:05:58

And the device, the mechanism by which a believer that's connected to

00:06:02--> 00:06:10

this connection, it doesn't let anybody else come in between when you and I are making slides, just in conversation with a lot of directors.

00:06:11--> 00:06:16

A lot of rather than responding to every part of the article, every person has a direct connection, okay?

00:06:18--> 00:06:23

This creates a transformation inside some of these characters, it's like a revolution happening inside of yourself.

00:06:24--> 00:06:50

Because change that happens inside yourself cannot remain inside yourself, you know, something that's not the threads. When it came to snake, it doesn't just find itself widespread. When a person gets sick, once a lot lights you up, and it will have an impact on your surroundings. So the natural results have real connection to a lot, a lot. A natural result of that is what the Father the father full of wisdom.

00:06:52--> 00:06:52

He says what

00:06:55--> 00:06:55

was

00:06:57--> 00:07:00

the man enjoy advise people to do good advice

00:07:02--> 00:07:03

suggests

00:07:05--> 00:07:15

because it doesn't just mean commands. It actually also means that models are to suggest in different situations, the different things.

00:07:18--> 00:07:20

Sometimes the only suggestion

00:07:21--> 00:07:22

is advice.

00:07:26--> 00:07:31

situation calls for, you know, for instance, you have a sibling.

00:07:33--> 00:07:47

And his sons, obviously, he's their father was the commander. So when they come back with a dirty shirt for the blood of blood, he is in fact in a position to commander because he's the deputy commander. No, because he's awkward

00:07:56--> 00:07:59

for me, because he doesn't matter what time

00:08:01--> 00:08:06

it is wisdom to have authority, it's still not easy. You know, that's something we learned.

00:08:09--> 00:08:10

We

00:08:12--> 00:08:12

establish

00:08:14--> 00:08:18

that as a result to truly be able to suggest or advise or even connect.

00:08:35--> 00:08:36

Good right.

00:08:39--> 00:08:40

Now,

00:08:41--> 00:08:41

objective

00:08:43--> 00:08:44

implies that

00:08:46--> 00:08:49

you know, what is known to be good, you're giving somebody advice, and

00:08:51--> 00:08:52

this is something good.

00:08:55--> 00:08:58

First thing to do something they already recognize.

00:09:07--> 00:09:08

You have to be a decent human being.

00:09:14--> 00:09:17

Start with that, and then move on.

00:09:20--> 00:09:32

Then predict and prevent from something unrecognized, literally something unrecognized, something nobody recognizes to be good. It's the third opposite of a formal language

00:09:35--> 00:09:35

is good.

00:09:39--> 00:09:43

cursing someone being rude to someone raising their voice

00:09:45--> 00:09:47

or not even the people who do it.

00:09:55--> 00:09:59

Why? Because that's just the progression of people.

00:10:00--> 00:10:06

to benefit from the greatness of salaat, yourself, then you or others the benefits of goodness. So you give them something.

00:10:08--> 00:10:10

And then eventually, when you have a relationship with them,

00:10:15--> 00:10:15

you will be

00:10:16--> 00:10:19

giving advice to somebody, go straight after them.

00:10:20--> 00:10:21

Know what you're doing this long

00:10:23--> 00:10:30

this will be here, you can talk like that you can do this, you can do that, and the first defense mechanism built into the human psyche.

00:10:32--> 00:10:33

Tell me who you think you are.

00:10:35--> 00:10:36

You can talk

00:10:37--> 00:10:37

to me,

00:10:41--> 00:10:42

he cannot respond to that.

00:10:44--> 00:10:47

You have to respond to that. If somebody comes up to you,

00:10:52--> 00:10:54

you don't respond to that.

00:10:59--> 00:10:59

Just

00:11:04--> 00:11:06

have to be a little bit more intelligent.

00:11:07--> 00:11:07

Was

00:11:11--> 00:11:12

this what I wanted to get to

00:11:13--> 00:11:14

connect

00:11:16--> 00:11:17

with an owner of the unknown.

00:11:21--> 00:11:23

When someone benefits from the goodness of religion,

00:11:24--> 00:11:32

you get what they're supposed to get out of. And they want to share that goodness with others, but others have no appreciation. If I

00:11:33--> 00:11:34

don't care about

00:11:36--> 00:11:50

it, take it to the curb. And you say to yourself, some really good advice, I went out of my way to help you. And this is what you do in return, naturally, you get a this is one of the manifestations of trying to get somebody

00:11:52--> 00:11:55

to do something good. And they will appreciate it.

00:11:56--> 00:11:57

This is an occasion

00:12:01--> 00:12:02

for you and I get

00:12:05--> 00:12:08

an expectation from my son or my daughter, or my wife or my husband.

00:12:10--> 00:12:12

Their expectation is not that I'm going to

00:12:16--> 00:12:19

show up on time, because I'm 40 minutes late. That's what I'm going to do.

00:12:21--> 00:12:24

Whenever we have expectations that they were not met,

00:12:26--> 00:12:28

whenever we have rights,

00:12:29--> 00:12:31

I have a right to be respected. I have a right to be

00:12:34--> 00:12:35

a teacher.

00:12:38--> 00:12:38

If I

00:12:40--> 00:12:42

have a husband or a wife

00:12:44--> 00:12:45

either way

00:12:46--> 00:12:49

for violating your rights

00:12:51--> 00:12:53

when a speech was very inappropriate.

00:12:55--> 00:12:57

He gets upset because my

00:12:59--> 00:13:02

expectations aren't met. When

00:13:03--> 00:13:04

when injustice is done.

00:13:08--> 00:13:08

Do

00:13:11--> 00:13:11

you know

00:13:13--> 00:13:15

the other half is I'm going on vacation? And do

00:13:17--> 00:13:20

you don't have the right when justice is not?

00:13:23--> 00:13:26

Okay, look at all those Occupy Wall Street occupy

00:13:30--> 00:13:31

because they feel like justice is

00:13:33--> 00:13:34

justice for

00:13:37--> 00:13:38

all of these are legitimate kinds of

00:13:41--> 00:13:44

contact or people who get angry when something is said against

00:13:46--> 00:13:47

something inappropriate

00:13:51--> 00:13:53

or unacceptable. Some people say

00:13:56--> 00:13:59

To put this in perspective, you and I have a right to get

00:14:01--> 00:14:02

the camera right.

00:14:03--> 00:14:08

What that what that should turn into according to our needs.

00:14:09--> 00:14:21

The ethics opinion is it and it goes through our hearts in our hearts to convert that anger into something that's really supposed to do when our heart is not a lot and

00:14:24--> 00:14:25

then the anger comes out.

00:14:29--> 00:14:30

What am I doing exactly?

00:14:32--> 00:14:34

nothing compared to what a lot

00:14:38--> 00:14:42

of people in this in this world will claim that

00:14:45--> 00:14:48

this statement makes not just believers.

00:14:49--> 00:14:50

Lot.

00:14:51--> 00:14:54

It makes him so angry that he says

00:14:58--> 00:15:00

perhaps the size of the Earth

00:15:01--> 00:15:02

Every

00:15:04--> 00:15:04

every

00:15:12--> 00:15:13

offensive that

00:15:16--> 00:15:22

I want you to remember, how can we apply guess was something inappropriate about this, there's multiple reasons.

00:15:24--> 00:15:25

One is something inappropriate.

00:15:30--> 00:15:31

It's alive

00:15:32--> 00:15:33

and alive.

00:15:37--> 00:15:37

And now this

00:15:40--> 00:15:42

is multiple accounts.

00:15:45--> 00:15:46

Keep that in mind as we go for

00:15:48--> 00:15:51

a group of Christians used to live in this area

00:15:53--> 00:15:54

at the time of the process of

00:16:00--> 00:16:02

messenger to check it out.

00:16:04--> 00:16:06

So they came to visit the messenger.

00:16:15--> 00:16:18

So where do these questions come

00:16:19--> 00:16:19

in?

00:16:22--> 00:16:22

They stay.

00:16:26--> 00:16:30

The same people who believe the most offensive things

00:16:31--> 00:16:36

are honored guests are honored guests in the house.

00:16:37--> 00:16:39

And every person speaks in

00:16:41--> 00:16:42

the conversation,

00:16:50--> 00:16:51

the messenger over

00:16:53--> 00:16:55

there talking to the messenger by justifying

00:16:58--> 00:17:00

inside the house of Allah

00:17:01--> 00:17:05

inside the house, there's a frown on the messenger

00:17:09--> 00:17:10

for the sake of

00:17:11--> 00:17:11

if

00:17:17--> 00:17:20

and if there's something to be offended about is the statement.

00:17:30--> 00:17:32

You are free. He's what

00:17:35--> 00:17:48

he calls us Abu Kiba. It's also implied there were people that were in contact with the books, they have access to the text, they were literally people that knew what they were talking about. And they were still coming up with the wrong conclusion.

00:17:51--> 00:17:52

Because the people who don't

00:17:55--> 00:17:55

know.

00:18:01--> 00:18:03

And yet the attitude of my messenger.

00:18:18--> 00:18:21

Whoever tries to debate with you try to stump you

00:18:23--> 00:18:28

is when you try to disagree with somebody going back and forth, and you come up with something.

00:18:35--> 00:18:41

These people are trying to one of you in conversation, find out the messenger online conversations.

00:18:42--> 00:18:44

Just think about that, in addition to the fact that

00:18:49--> 00:19:01

in addition to all of that, they are trying to be offensive in their discourse with the messenger of a loss of a loved one from this. Amen. Muslim, Muslim,

00:19:02--> 00:19:03

Muslim, how

00:19:06--> 00:19:06

do you call it

00:19:08--> 00:19:09

into the messenger

00:19:11--> 00:19:15

just open the customers name itself.

00:19:18--> 00:19:20

But they didn't say he said

00:19:24--> 00:19:25

that he says

00:19:32--> 00:19:33

don't

00:19:35--> 00:19:36

want to do that.

00:19:39--> 00:19:47

Just because you call him by his name just because of that because you were too casual in your in your lack of respect for the message.

00:19:49--> 00:19:50

And these guys are doing what?

00:19:51--> 00:19:52

They're debating with him.

00:19:54--> 00:19:57

How much more offended first because he's a

00:19:58--> 00:19:59

second

00:20:01--> 00:20:03

With the message of love, and

00:20:05--> 00:20:07

color with your kids that you will come with

00:20:18--> 00:20:21

a lot of different things. In South Dakota.

00:20:26--> 00:20:33

We need to learn how to be patient, we need to learn to take that anger and transform it into into patient intelligence.

00:20:37--> 00:20:38

We cannot be the people

00:20:44--> 00:20:45

we love are going

00:20:51--> 00:20:52

to be upset.

00:20:55--> 00:20:59

Because this way, I have a right to be treated fairly at work. If I'm asked

00:21:04--> 00:21:20

to do one of those feelings, those feelings are stemming from something far worse than anger. That is, it's arrogance, pride, your pride is hurt. If that's the case, then you've got way bigger problems and anger, then

00:21:21--> 00:21:22

that's not a real problem.

00:21:24--> 00:21:25

When people come back to the good

00:21:27--> 00:21:27

times pretty much

00:21:29--> 00:21:30

what we'll do one time.

00:21:32--> 00:21:38

Originally, somebody can ask for the good, because they felt the goods themselves when they got connected to them.

00:21:40--> 00:21:48

But as you get used to connect people, you start forgetting about yourself, it's just about you having the authority to tell others what to do.

00:21:54--> 00:21:56

Forget about yourself, and

00:21:59--> 00:22:01

what to do, and when they don't use your

00:22:06--> 00:22:09

nose, people which is an expression for what

00:22:10--> 00:22:11

all

00:22:12--> 00:22:13

these people that do this.

00:22:20--> 00:22:22

Don't be condescending to people

00:22:24--> 00:22:26

is your anger if you don't have

00:22:33--> 00:22:35

this conversation, that's

00:22:42--> 00:22:43

incredible, was

00:22:46--> 00:22:47

just a walk around.

00:22:50--> 00:22:50

You're sitting in

00:22:56--> 00:22:58

the slammer on the floor.

00:23:02--> 00:23:02

Books

00:23:07--> 00:23:09

is basically to keep yourself in check when you

00:23:11--> 00:23:11

know where you are.

00:23:22--> 00:23:23

He says

00:23:27--> 00:23:27

you

00:23:34--> 00:23:38

need to check yourself. And then if you do want to raise your voice,

00:23:41--> 00:23:44

the worst kind of sound or the most

00:23:46--> 00:23:46

of sounds

00:23:48--> 00:23:53

compared to the angry guy raising his voice to a dog in this one I want to end with why.

00:23:54--> 00:23:57

First of all, it's it's very it's very

00:23:59--> 00:24:00

I don't want to pretend to do it.

00:24:03--> 00:24:05

But there's another adult who was used

00:24:07--> 00:24:08

to Lowe's
