Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Teach, make things easy and do not make them difficult. When one of you becomes angry, he should fall silent; when one of you becomes angry, he should fall silent."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it. The narrators of Ahmad are thiqat (trustworthy), because the narrator Layth explicitly stated that he heard it from Tawus.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a person becomes angry, if at that moment he says 'A'udhu billahi min al-shaytan al-rajim' (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed), his anger will leave him."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), though there is a difference of opinion about some of them.

Hadith Takhrij«اخرجه الطبراني فى المعجم الصغير (1021)»
Abu al-Aswad reports this about Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him): He was watering (his animals) at a trough when some people came, and it was said: "Which of you will bring his animals to water at Abu Dharr's trough and be ready to lose a few hairs of his head?" A man said: "I will." The man came, brought his animals to the trough and broke it. Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) was standing; he sat down and then lay down. He was asked: "Why did you first sit down and then lie down?" He said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: "When one of you becomes angry while he is standing, he should sit down; if his anger leaves him, well and good, otherwise he should lie down."
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Abu Dawud recorded it with the story shortened and without mentioning Abu al-Aswad.
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
