Short Fuse

WOULD YOU BLOW YOUR TOP...
if your wife falsely accused you of looking at other women?
Hazrat Umar (radhiallahu anhu), famed for his sternness in matters Islamic, used to patrol the streets of Madinah at night, when he was Caliph, to check on the state of his subjects. One day his wife told him sharply, "You go to see the young women."
Umar (radhiallahu anhu) did not get angry at this false allegation. He calmly replied, "Allah Ta’ala knows best that what you say is not true."

WILL YOU TRIP A FUSE...
if your wife asked you to do the housework?
The Noble Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) used to help in the house.
He is reported to have milked the goats, patched his own clothes, swept the floor of the house and carried items home from the bazaar.

DO YOU EXPLODE…
if your son-in-law has a tiff with your daughter?
Once Hazrat Faathima, daughter of the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), and Hazrat Ali (radhiallahu anhuma) had a misunderstanding.
Our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) did not add fuel to the fire by berating Ali (radhiallahu anhu). He went up to him, rubbed the sand off his clothes and spoke to him kindly.
