Dua When Angry

أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
A'udhu billahi minash-shaytanir-rajim.
"I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed devil."
Sahih Al-Bukhari 6115

Spiritual Benefits

Anger is often fueled by the whispers of Shaytan. Seeking refuge in Allah acts as an immediate psychological and spiritual breaker to stop the escalation of negative emotions.

When Should I Say This Dua?

Recite this immediately upon feeling the sudden surge of anger.

Proper Etiquette (Sunnah)

If you are standing, sit down. If you are sitting, lie down. Make Wudu if the anger persists.
