attention to his warning, and drove his riding animal to tread on the yields until he approached the man. He, then, rode off, sat with the man, spoke with him kindly, smiled in his face, and asked: "How much did I cause you to lose as a result of treading on your yields?"
"About one hundred dinars," said the man.
"How much do you expect to gain from it?" asked the Imam.
"I cannot tell of the unseen," answered the man.
"I only asked how much do you expect," said the Imam.
"I expect two hundred dinars," answered the man.
The Imam (a) took out a bag of three hundred dinars and said to the man "This is for the yields, and Allah may give you that which you expect."
The man stood up, kissed the Imam on the head, and asked him to forgive his past wrongdoings. The Imam smiled and went away.
When the Imam entered the mosque, that man was sitting there. As soon as he saw him, he shouted: "It is surely that God is the most knowledgeable of the worthiest of conveying His message."
The man's associates jumped to him with astonishment and asked, "What is the matter with you? We used to see the opposite of this."
"Well," said the man, "you have heard my new situation," and went on praising and praying to God for the Imam (a). That situation made him lose those associates.
When the Imam went back home, he said to the company who had asked him to kill that man: "Which one is the best-your intention or my deed? I could guide that man to the right as much as you saw, and I could save myself from his evils." 59
ANGER
Anger is a mental condition that provokes the excitement of man in words and deeds. Because of the dangers and sins --such like mocking, gibe, obscenity, beating, killing, and the like evildoings-that are resulted from anger, it has been considered as the door to every evil:
Imam as-Sadiq narrated on the authority of his father that a Bedouin came to the Prophet (s) and said: "I live in the desert; hence, I want you to instruct me the comprehensive of speech." The Prophet said: "I instruct you not to be angry." As the Bedouin repeated the same request three times, the Prophet (s) repeated the answer three times. The Bedouin commented: "I will not ask you for anything any more. Certainly, the Messenger of God has instructed me the best." 60
Amir ul-Mu'minin (a) said: "Keep off anger because it is one large army from the Shaitan's armies."
"Anger is a stroke of madness, for the angry, later on, feels sorry. If he does not, his madness then is inclusive." 61
Imam al-Baqir (a) said: "A man often becomes so angry that he is never pleased until this causes him to be in Hell." 62
Imam as-Sadiq (a) said: "Anger is the key to every evil." 63
Incentives of Anger:
The incentive of anger could be a physical disorder, such as illness or neuropathy that cause hypersensitiveness.
It could be a psychological defect that is arisen from mental stress, excessive selfishness, or feeling of insult or inferiority.
