I met Abbas and his family a few years ago in Long Island, NY. They were a normal beautiful good family from Gujranwala. The only odd thing about Abbas was his anger. But this is normal with most Pakistanis and Indians. We are always yelling at our kids and spouses. All his close friends knew of his anger and he had fought with many of them, and then reconciled. I believe his anger issues escalated to this uncontrollable level and to this tragic event. May Allah grant his wife and sons Jannah and pardon him. Please pray for them. May Allah give us self control and give us all the strength to face hardships and stresses, no matter where we are in the world.
