I have a sister and she in some aspects says Islam is wrong; and my parents don’t do anything about it. Today a topic came up about islam and my sister started saying evil about it and I continuously tried to stop her but she arrogantly continued while I remained calm. Then suddenly I shouted at her pointing finger at her mouth and told her full of anger to shut up in front of whole family. I am always a calm person, and in this situation my anger goes up and then down so fast that I don’t get time to even seek Refuge in Allah from shaitan. Advise me, what should I do in this situation?
