Anger is ever a cause of regret
Anger makes you act hastily and irrationally; it causes you to say or do something which you end up regretting. It was anger at his people’s disbelief that caused Yunus (AS) to disregard the command of Allah, as He says, 'And [mention] the man of the fish [Yunus], when he went off in anger and deemed that We had no power over him…' (21:87) It is important to avoid making decisions while in a state of anger or exasperation. Wait until you can think clearly, take a deep breath, and ask Allah to guide you, before deciding upon a matter.
