Anger
Poem verses 130-37
As for the swelling ocean of all these diseases, I mean anger; if you come to its shore, you'll see great astonishments.
Its waves and everything else about it are overflowing. So say of it what you will without constraint.
It has two treatments: one of them removes it altogether without trace. The other suppresses it should it manifest itself.
To be adorned with the ornament of its cure, remember the extensive praise lavished upon forbearance and humility
in Sacred Law, as well as in the poetry and prose of the wise. Indeed, remember that all of the prophets have been depicted as having both qualities.
Repel [anger] by perceiving at its onset that there is no one doing anything in reality except the Almighty;
also by performing ablution with cold water, keeping silent, lying down (if one is sitting)
and sitting (if one is standing). It will pass by doing these things, and also by seeking refuge in God as was mentioned in the tradition.
Written by Imam al-Mawlud in Matharat al-Qulub
