Written by: Qari Usama bin Abdussalam حفظه الله
✿ Individuals Whose Deeds Are Disliked by Allah
In the Noble Qur’an and the sayings of the Prophet ﷺ, Allah Almighty has clearly identified those types of individuals whose actions are detested by Him. Below are ten prominent categories:
➊ Those Who Commit Shirk (Polytheists)
The Qur’an states:
📖 “إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن يَشَاءُ” (An-Nisāʾ: 48)
“Indeed, Allah does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills.”
➋ The Hypocrites (Outwardly Muslim, Inwardly Disbelievers)
The Qur’an states:
📖 “إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ فِي الدَّرْكِ الْأَسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ” (An-Nisāʾ: 145)
“Indeed, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths of the Fire.”
➌ The Oppressors and Unjust
Allah has expressed His dislike for oppression:
📖 “وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظَّالِمِينَ” (Āl ʿImrān: 57)
“And Allah does not love the wrongdoers.”
➍ The Arrogant and Proud
The Prophet ﷺ said:
📖 “لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ ذَرَّةٍ مِنْ كِبْرٍ” (Muslim: 91)
“Whoever has even a speck of arrogance in his heart shall not enter Paradise.”
➎ The Liars and Deceivers
The Qur’an mentions:
📖 “إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِي مَنْ هُوَ مُسْرِفٌ كَذَّابٌ” (Ghāfir: 28)
“Indeed, Allah does not guide one who is a transgressor and a liar.”
➏ Those Who Take Bribes and Earn Illegally
The Prophet ﷺ strictly forbade bribery:
📖 “لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الرَّاشِيَ وَالْمُرْتَشِيَ” (Tirmidhi: 1337)
“Allah has cursed the one who gives and the one who takes a bribe.”
➐ Those Who Backbite and Slander
The Qur’an warns against backbiting:
📖 “وَلَا يَغْتَب بَّعْضُكُم بَعْضًا ۚ أَيُحِبُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَن يَأْكُلَ لَحْمَ أَخِيهِ مَيْتًا فَكَرِهْتُمُوهُ” (Al-Ḥujurāt: 12)
“Do not backbite one another. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would detest it.”
➑ Those Who Disobey Their Parents
The Prophet ﷺ counted this among the gravest sins:
📖 “أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ؟ قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ” (Bukhari: 2654)
“Shall I inform you of the greatest of major sins?” They said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “Associating partners with Allah and disobedience to parents.”
➒ Those Who Break Promises
Allah commands the fulfillment of covenants:
📖 “يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَوْفُوا بِالْعُقُودِ” (Al-Mā’idah: 1)
“O you who believe! Fulfill [all] contracts.”
➓ Those Who Promote Immorality and Indecency
Allah has promised severe punishment:
📖 “إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ أَن تَشِيعَ الْفَاحِشَةُ فِي الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ” (An-Nūr: 19)
“Indeed, those who like that immorality should be spread among the believers will have a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter.”
✿ Conclusion

✔ Commit shirk
✔ Display hypocrisy
✔ Commit oppression
✔ Exhibit arrogance
✔ Lie and deceive
✔ Accept or give bribes
