Excellent reward on controlling Anger
The gist of the Hadith is that a man will be brought before Allah on the Day of Resurrection as part of reckoning. Although Allah knows everything yet He asks for some details that other people may know it too. So, He will ask the Angels to let Him know what piety is recorded in his Record of deeds. The Angels will say, "O Allah! There are not too many righteous deeds in his Record. He was not given to voluntary effort in worship but there is one thing very prominent in his Record. Whenever anyone trespassed his rights, he was quick to forgive him and if anyone told him that he could not repay his rights then he asked his subordinates to forgo their demand and pardon him because he did not have the means. In this manner, he gave up his rights." Allah will say, "As this man behaved in a forgiving manner with My slaves and gave up his rights too for them, today I too will deal with him in a forgiving spirit, and I forgive him." So, it is on this basis that Allah forgives the man.
