Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that a man once said to Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), “Advise me.” Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Do not become angry.” He repeated this question over and over and Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) replied each time, “Do not become angry.”
