Book: Treatment for Anger
4. The Blessings Of Lahowla Wala Quwwata...

Muhaddithin have written in the commentary of "La howla" that by means of its recitation one attains the taufiq of staying away from sins and the initiative towards the doing of good deeds, thereby finally reaching Jannah. Jannah has two treasures, i.e., the performance of good deeds and abstention from sins. Both will be attained by reciting "La howla". If perchance one feels an urge towards sinning, one should immediately recite "Lahowla wala quwwata illah billah", but should anyone overhear you reading these words, you may fall into trouble, as they may think that you have called them shaytan, these being the customary words used against shaytan. People, usually fight over this, which is purely childish. People do not know the meaning of "La howla" so they think that they are being sworn at. One should not take offence upon hearing these words as this is a wazifa for invoking Allah's help. Now, coming back to the subject of "Anger" one should forgive the mistakes of others by thinking of Allah's mercy for His creation. Would we not want Allah to have mercy upon us and forgive us on the day of Judgement? Therefore, we should also overlook and forgive the mistakes of Allah's servants today, so that we too can secure His forgiveness tomorrow. One of the signs of the pious servants of Allah is that they go through some difficulties themselves but refrain from causing difficulties to others. Who are the pious servants of Allah (Abrar)? They are those who would not even harm an ant, and when they witness the disobedience of Allah taking place, they are greatly displeased and pained. These are the two signs of Allah's pious servants. We should make sure that no harm comes to anybody from outside, especially in the state of anger which can be so overpowering that one may badly hurt another. Usually, the strong thrive upon the weak by giving vent to their anger on the latter, but when a stronger person comes along then ones anger cools off very fast!!

Someone said to Dr Abdulhay's son, Dr Hassan, that in the state of anger, he becomes mad. Doctor Saheb laughed at this and said: "Anger is a shrewd thing, it is not mad, because when one stronger than the angry one comes along with a gun or knife in his hand, then the angry one quickly comes to his senses and runs for his life! Allah's special servants control themselves even in the state of anger. How powerful was Hazrat Mûsa (AS). The Quran states that the Qibti (Coptic) died by just one punch of Mûsa (AS).

Once Allah Ta'ala commanded Hazrat Mûsa (AS) to strike his stick upon a rock. The rock broke into two and from within it came out a tiny little insect with a green leaf in its mouth, eating its sustenance. Yet there was no hole in the rock for it to have come out to look for its food. Here Allah Ta'ala was showing Mûsa (AS) how He sustains His creation. The above incident is recorded in the commentary of the verse "Wa ma min dabatin," in Ruhul Ma'ani by Allamah Aloosi.
