<![CDATA[Anger is one of the various basic human emotions that if not managed properly has the potential to cause destructive impacts for both individuals and society, in Islam, especially in the Shia tradition, anger is not something that is eliminated but rather as an affective impulse that is important to be controlled consciously and meaningfully, this study aims to examine the strategy of emotional regulation in the hadiths of the Shia school, especially the concept of holding back anger (kadzm al-Ghaidzh) and its relevance analysis with James J. Gross's emotional regulation model.
