Assalamualaikum brothers and sisters.
One word to discuss: Anger.
We all know what anger is, and we've all
felt it; whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage.
Anger is a completely normal, usually
healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive,
it can lead to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and even
in the overall quality of your life.
So, everything will be depending on how you
handle your anger, and where you vented out your anger.Will you still be a cool
person or will you turn into a Godzilla in rage?
The Facebook.
This social media, Facebook is the famous
medium nowadays for people to venting out their displeasure, irritation, rage,
anger, vexation, irks, wrath, fury, annoyance and what-so-ever words related to
the word anger.
Are you one of them?
I, personally think it is not professional at all.
Using the caps lock, and doubling tripling the exclamation marks.
Sometimes, I just want to reply,
"Hey. It is not you the only one who can do the caps lock. I CAN DO IT TOO."
But, of course, that statement will only come from a hatred emotional heart.
Rasulullah S.A.W. taught us, to not have any vengeful thoughts, for we are taught to forgive those who have been hostile towards us.
We should be shameful, for whatever things we have wrote during the time when we were angry. Read it back.
Sometimes, when people are mad over something, they can't think straight. Whatever came to their mind, will be only perceptions, and own thoughts.
In fact, perceptions are never true. What we see with our eyes, is never true, until we confront it. Why do we made such perception and thought, and then, being mad and all without knowing or even asking for the truth?
We'll think we are right, but in fact, we're making ourselves look so pitiful.
Posting our anger on Facebook, will done nothing. Not only we'll hurt those we've mentioned, we've also humiliated them, and in other words, we've shown the world that we've did some stupid act with our ignorance.
More importantly,
What are we? A coward?
Posting our anger to someone on Facebook, WITHOUT confronting with him/her first?
That's a coward to me.
If we really are 'concern' about that particular person, go and meet him/her DIRECTLY on the face.
Ask them why is this and why is that.
Doing the talks behind them will done nothing.
We should change.
It's so easy to judge others, but, it's so hard to judge ourselves.

Any questions?
Islam has the answer for everything,
insyaAllah.
“What
Rasulullah said about anger?”
Reported by Abu Hurairah (RA): A man asked the Prophet (peace
be upon him) to give him advice, and he (peace be upon him) said, “Do not get
angry.” The man repeated that several times and he (peace be upon him) replied
(every time), “Do not get angry.”
[Bukhari]
“But,
what if I can’t control my anger?”
Reported by Abu Hurairah (RA): Messenger of Allah (peace be
upon him) said, “The strong man is not the one who wrestles, but the strong man
is in fact the one who controls himself in a fit of rage.”
[Bukhari& Muslim]
“How
to control my anger then?”
Narated By AbuDharr : The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon
him) said to us: When one of you becomes angry while standing, he should sit
down. If the anger leaves him, well and good; otherwise he should lie down.
[Abu Dawud]
“What
‘s in there for me if I am able to control my anger?”
Reported by Mu`adh bin Anas (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon
him) said, "The one who suppresses anger and has the power to give effect
to it, will be called out by Allah, the Exalted, to the forefront of the
creatures on the Day of Resurrection and he will be asked to choose any of the
virgins (Hur) of his liking".
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi]
All of us certainly have the ability to change.
Wallahualam.
