The answer

There is nothing in this common proverb that necessitates prohibiting it. What is meant by it is that a forbearing person may lose his temper and become excessively angry if provoked, and inflict upon his provocateur an evil he did not anticipate. It is thus a guidance against being deluded by the forbearance of the forbearing and provoking him with what might make him act contrary to his nature and custom.
