Islamic Manners During Anger Resource Pack

“The strong one is not the one who can wrestle — the strong one is the one who controls himself when angry.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 6114)

Teens feel anger hard — and almost no one teaches them what to do with it. This 24-page pack does. It combines the 5 Sunnah methods of anger control with real psychology (fight-or-flight, CBT, thought reframing), so young people get a faith-rooted plan for the exact moment anger hits. Not a lecture. A toolkit.
