While driving on road, because of other’s mistake, you are forced/miss an accident. You get very angry, cannot get hold of him. The question is whether abusing him verbally is sharan ok or not?

Answer

We, as Muslims, are required to adopt patience in all circumstances. Allah Ta?ala states, ?Allah is with the patient ones.?

Hence, you should be patient and withhold your tongue as abusing people verbally is only going to give vent to your anger which is not commendable.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
