Rejecting the truth and despising people

Pride lives in the heart and soul, but produces discernible signs and attitude that announce it. The hadith points to these products of arrogance to help in their identification and treatment. Furthermore, by understanding what the signs of arrogance are, we can distinguish between arrogance and other permissible feelings and acts.

The Messenger (saw) said:” The one who has an ant’s weight of arrogance in their heart shall not enter Paradise.” A man said,” Indeed, one loves his clothes and his shoes to be nice.” He said:” Allah is beautiful and loves beautification. Arrogance is rejection of the truth and the belittling of people.” (Muslim)

Usama ibn Zaid (R.A) reports that he asked Prophet Muhammad (SAW):” O Messenger of Allah! I have seen you fasting in the month of Sha’ban so frequently that I have never seen you fasting in any other month.” Prophet Muhammad (SAW) replied:” Sha’ban is a month between Rajab and Ramadhan, which is neglected by many people. And it is a month in which an account of the deeds is presented before the Lord of the Universe, so I wish that my deeds be presented at a time when I am in a state of fasting.” (Ahmad and Nasai)
