Salam alaykum brothers & sisters ! this topic is for you all .. and for particiular those who gets angry really easily ! Hadeeth 16 : The Forbiddance of Anger
On the authority of Abu Hurairah (radiAllaahu anhu),
That a man said to the Prophet sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam : "Counsel me", so he (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said :
Do not become angry.
The man repeated [his request for counsel] several times, and he (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said :
Do not become angry.
It was related by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim.
Explanation of Hadeeth Number 16
The author of "al-Ifsaah min al-Jaa'iz" said that the Prophet sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam recognised in this man considerable anger, so he singled out for him this particular advice. And the Prophet sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam has praised the one who is able to control himself at the time of anger, and has said :
"The powerful man is not the one who is able to wrestle, but the powerful man is the one who is able to control himself at the time of anger"
. And Allaah ta'aalaa has also praised such a person where He says : "those who repress their anger, and who pardon others" [aal-'Imraan, 134]. And it is narrated from the Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) that he said : "Whoever represses his anger while he is able to express it and is not in the wrong, then Allaah 'azza wa jall will call him amongst the best of Creation on the Day of Resurrection, and he will be allowed to choose whoever he wishes from amongst the Hoor."
And it has also been narrated in another hadeeth : "Verily anger is from Shaytaan", and it is because of this that the angry person is no longer able to deal justly, and he speaks falsehood, and he takes on many blameworthy characteristics, and he takes into his heart feelings of hatred and malice and other than that of the despicable, forbiddden characteristics - and all of this is from anger, may Allaah protect us from it. And it has been narrated in the hadeeth of Sulaymaan bin Sarud : "Verily seeking refuge with Allaah from Shaytaan, the outcast, causes the anger to recede." And this is because Shaytaan is the one who beautifies anger and all other such blameworthy affairs, for Shaytaan always tries to mislead man and keep him away from the Pleasure of Allaah 'azza wa jall, and so seeking refuge with Allaah from him is one of the strongest weapons available to repel his evil designs.
Waslam

Indeed, Islam is peace, and anger/force is not the way to spread it.

i have yet to see effective measures countering the "stereotypical Muslim" Well, those "stereotypical Muslims" you speak of aren't even muslim if they can't restrain anger. Also if he does get angry, but repents honestly he will be forgiven as long as he doesn't do the same sin, even though Allah (SWT) will forgive him/her again and again and again...

just when i think i've grasped the concept of islam slightly, it changes some more.
And they believe they're muslims and forcing it down people's throats, leaving me, as well as millions of other non-Muslims
rather confused about it Islam. I mean we know you guys are a religion of peace and tolerance, yaddayaddayadda...but when you see Muslims, or self-proclaimed Muslims reacting violently out of anger, and a good deal of them...well....it's rather hard to not associate Muslims with that.
I know better than that, but reality says that most others don't.

I know better than that, but reality says that most others don't. Thats not true, I do not have the Qur'anic verses infront of me but I do remember that Allah(SWT) has mentioned that if you miss prayer while traveling or away from home, He will forgive you for that. Also I don't believe you get "screwed over" for missing a prayer as long as you had a reason for it. (Work, Taking care of A baby, Away from Home or anywhere to pray, etc.) you only get screwed if you KNOW you missed prayer, AND that you are in the middle of doing something that causes laziness or sinfulness. Allah(SWT) isn't as strict as most people assume. Also the fact that Most "Muslims" force violence and what not, doesn't make them follow Islam, It's like assuming most Christians love to have premarital sex, which as you have said, isn't true.
