Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لَنَا " إِذَا غَضِبَ أَحَدُكُمْ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ فَلْيَجْلِسْ فَإِنْ ذَهَبَ عَنْهُ الْغَضَبُ وَإِلاَّ فَلْيَضْطَجِعْ " .
Translation
Ahmad ibn Hanbal narrated to us: Abu Mu‘awiyah narrated to us: Dawud ibn Abi Hind narrated to us, from Abu Harb ibn al-Aswad, from Abu Dharr, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to us: ‘When one of you becomes angry while standing, let him sit. If his anger goes away, well and good; otherwise let him lie down.’
