12 Effective Ways to Deal With Anger.     Very Important Anger is a healthy, normal emotion, but it’s the one that creates devastating results when out of control. Anger is another form of Shaytaan, the forbidden, a concealed weapon that demolishes the noblest of characters. Because of anger, human beings can lose their wisdom, changing themselves into brutal beasts. Anger is the root cause of all evil— the Shaytaan in our hearts comes out in the form of anger and weakens the Emaan. THE SOURCE AND OUTCOME OF ANGER Out-of-control anger is the result of extreme annoyance, aggression, and displeasure and is a deadly malady. Our Prophet, peace be upon him, has told us anger is part of the flames of hellfire. It starts at home by breaking up families and grows to encompass war between nations. An angry man loses his self-control and utters words that devastate. If the fire of anger is not controlled in time it progresses rapidly and because of this anger man suffers, both internall...

To help you tap into the power of knowing, here are 20 questions to ask your suitors before you say “YES” to the right one. 1. Why did your last relationship end? It is not like you need to know all the details about their breakup, but he should at least be able to explain what happened in his previous relationship. Here are a few warning signals for this question: It’s either he doesn’t want to talk about his past relationship, which means he hasn’t moved on yet or he doesn’t know why they broke up and they don’t have closure until now. 2. Have you moved on from your previous relationship? This is one of the most important things to ask when you’re entertaining a suitor because you wouldn’t know if he’s just using you as a rebound to forget his ex-girlfriend. Dig deeper and look into his eyes to see how sincere he is while he’s answering your question. 3. How do you deal with heartbreaks? We all know that dealing with heartbreaks is not that easy. One thing to know how he handles thro...

People Learn Too Late In Life together with our own notes: ¶Dr. Jacqueline Mahadik, Principal, National UN Volunteer 1. Everything Is Temporary: When we are younger we tend to act as though we have forever and don’t appreciate all the things we have. It so often only hits people when it is too late that the time is gone. 2. Life Isn’t Fair This is a universal fact: There will always be people who are having an easier time and people having a harder time than you. Expecting life to be fair will lead to great disappointment. We don’t all get dealt the same cards. 3. Family Matters More Than Friends: Nobody will be willing to go further for you than your family. Not only do you need them but they need you. 4. Others Treat You The Way You Treat Yourself, Not Them: This is really a note about setting boundaries. What you are prepared to tolerate will dictate who you associate with and consequently, how you are treated. 5. The Sacrifices You Make Today Will Pay Dividends In The F...
