Chapter on what has been narrated regarding warning against arrogance and pride
Hadith 9717
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((لَا يَدْخُلُ النَّارَ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ وَلَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ كِبْرٍ)) فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَيُعْجِبُنِي أَنْ يَكُونَ ثَوْبِي غَسِيلًا وَرَأْسِي دَهِينًا وَشِرَاكُ نَعْلِي جَدِيدًا وَذَكَرَ أَشْيَاءَ حَتَّى ذَكَرَ عِلَاقَةَ سَوْطِهِ أَفَمِنَ الْكِبْرِ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ((لَا ذَاكَ الْجَمَالُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الْجَمَالَ وَلَكِنَّ الْكِبْرَ مَنْ سَفِهَ الْحَقَّ وَازْدَرَى النَّاسَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The person who has faith equal to a grain in his heart will not enter the Fire, and the person who has arrogance equal to a grain in his heart will not enter Paradise. A man said: O Messenger of Allah! I like that my clothes are clean, oil is applied to my hair, the strap of my shoe is new, and then he mentioned some more things, even to the extent of mentioning the ring for hanging a whip. Are these things from arrogance, O Messenger of Allah? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, this is beauty. Indeed, Allah is Beautiful and loves beauty. Arrogance is to reject the truth and to look down upon people.
Hadith 9718
عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَمُوتُ حِينَ يَمُوتُ وَفِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ كِبْرٍ تَحِلُّ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ أَنْ يَرِيحَ رِيحَهَا وَلَا يَرَاهَا)) فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو رَيْحَانَةَ وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّ الْجَمَالَ وَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever dies while there is even a mustard seed's weight of arrogance in his heart, Paradise will not be permissible for him to the extent that he can smell its fragrance or see it. A man from the Quraysh named Abu Rayhanah said: O Messenger of Allah! By Allah, I like beauty and elegance, ... . Then he narrated a report similar to the hadith of Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him).
Hadith 9719
عَنْ أَبِي رَيْحَانَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((لَا يَدْخُلُ شَيْءٌ مِنَ الْكِبْرِ الْجَنَّةَ)) فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَتَجَمَّلَ بِحَبْلَيْ سَوْطِي وَشِسْعِ نَعْلِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَيْسَ بِالْكِبْرِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الْجَمَالَ إِنَّمَا الْكِبْرُ مَنْ سَفَهَ الْحَقَّ وَغَمَصَ النَّاسَ بِعَيْنَيْهِ)) يَعْنِي بِالْحَبْلَيْنِ سَيْرَ السَّوْطِ وَشِسْعَ النَّعْلِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Raihanah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Nothing of arrogance will enter Paradise. Someone said: O Messenger of Allah! I like to have beauty with the thread or leather of my whip and the strap of my shoe. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is not arrogance. Indeed, Allah Almighty is Beautiful and loves beauty. Arrogance is to reject the truth and to look down upon people. By "hablan" is meant the leather or thread of the whip and the strap of the shoe.
Hadith 9720
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((إِنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ نُوحًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قَالَ لِابْنِهِ إِنِّي قَاصٌّ عَلَيْكَ الْوَصِيَّةَ آمُرُكَ بِاثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَنْهَاكَ عَنْ اثْنَتَيْنِ آمُرُكَ بِلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَذَكَرَ فَضْلَهَا وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ فَذَكَرَ فَضْلَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ وَأَنْهَاكَ عَنِ الشِّرْكِ وَالْكِبْرِ)) قَالَ قُلْتُ أَوْ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا الشِّرْكُ قَدْ عَرَفْنَاهُ فَمَا الْكِبْرُ قَالَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِأَحَدِنَا نَعْلَانِ حَسَنَتَانِ لَهُمَا شِرَاكَانِ حَسَنَانِ قَالَ ((لَا)) قَالَ هُوَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِأَحَدِنَا حُلَّةٌ يَلْبَسُهَا قَالَ ((لَا)) قَالَ الْكِبْرُ هُوَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِأَحَدِنَا دَابَّةٌ يَرْكَبُهَا قَالَ ((لَا)) قَالَ أَفَهُوَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِأَحَدِنَا أَصْحَابٌ يَجْلِسُونَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ ((لَا)) قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا الْكِبْرُ قَالَ ((سَفْهُ الْحَقِّ وَغَمْصُ النَّاسِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When the time of death of Allah’s Prophet Nuh (peace be upon him) approached, he said to his son: Indeed, I am about to give you a will. I command you regarding two things and forbid you from two things. I command you to say LAA ILAAHA ILLALLAH, then he described the virtue of this phrase, and I advise you to say SUBHANALLAHI WABIHAMDIHI, then he mentioned its virtue, and I forbid you from shirk (associating partners with Allah) and arrogance.
Someone said: O Messenger of Allah! We recognize shirk, but what is arrogance? Is it that a servant has good shoes and good laces for them? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No. He said: Is it that a servant has a garment which he wears? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No. He said: Then is arrogance that a servant has a riding animal upon which he rides? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No. He said: Is it then that a servant has companions who sit with him? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No. He said: O Messenger of Allah! Then what is arrogance? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: To reject the truth and to look down upon people.

Hadith 9721
عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ الْتَقَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْعَاصِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ الَّذِي حَدَّثَنِي هَذَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِنْسَانٌ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ كِبْرٍ))
Abu Hayyan’s father, Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman, says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) met each other, then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) turned away and began to weep. The people asked: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Why are you weeping? He said: Because of what he has related to me. He says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: That person will not enter Paradise in whose heart there is even a mustard seed’s weight of arrogance.
Hadith 9722
عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ الْتَقَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو بْنِ الْعَاصِ عَلَى الْمَرْوَةِ فَتَحَدَّثَا ثُمَّ مَضَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَبَقِيَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ هَذَا يَعْنِي عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ كِبْرٍ أَكَبَّهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ فِي النَّارِ))
Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman says: On Marwah, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with them) met each other, they talked, then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them) left, and behind him Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) began to weep. A man said to him: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Why are you weeping? He said: This Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them) has said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever has arrogance equal to a mustard seed in his heart, Allah Almighty will throw him on his face into Hell.
Hadith 9723
عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ كُنْتُ لَا أُحْجَبُ عَنِ النَّجْوَى وَلَا عَنْ كَذَا وَلَا عَنْ كَذَا قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ فَنَسِيَ وَاحِدَةً وَنَسِيتُ أَنَا وَاحِدَةً قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَعِنْدَهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ مُرَارَةَ الرَّهَاوِيُّ فَأَدْرَكْتُ مِنْ آخِرِ حَدِيثِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ قُسِمَ لِي مِنَ الْجَمَالِ مَا تَرَى فَمَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ أَحَدًا مِنَ النَّاسِ فَضَلَنِي بِشِرَاكَيْنِ فَمَا فَوْقَهَا أَفَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الْبَغْيَ قَالَ ((لَا لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ الْبَغْيَ لَكِنَّ الْبَغْيَ مَنْ بَطَرَ قَالَ أَوْ قَالَ سَفِهَ الْحَقَّ وَغَمَطَ النَّاسَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was neither forbidden from whispering nor from such-and-such things. Ibn ‘Aun says: He forgot one thing and I did not remember the other. Then I came to him while Malik bin Mararah Rahawi was sitting with him and he was narrating a hadith. The last part of that hadith, which I heard, was this: He said: O Messenger of Allah! I have been given a considerable share of beauty and elegance, as you know. Now I wish that no man should surpass me even in the matter of two straps (i.e., shoes). Is this arrogance? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, this is not arrogance. Arrogance is to reject the truth and to look down upon people.
Hadith 9724
عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((مَنْ تَعَظَّمَ فِي نَفْسِهِ أَوِ اخْتَالَ فِي مِشْيَتِهِ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ))
Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever walks arrogantly with pride, will meet Allah in such a state that He will be angry with him.
Hadith 9725
عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ الْجَوَّاظُ وَالْجَعْظَرِيُّ وَالْعُتُلُّ وَالزَّنِيمُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Ghanm (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: These individuals will not enter Paradise: one who walks arrogantly, one who is ill-tempered and bad-natured, a harsh and rude person, and a mean person who is notorious for baseness and evil.
Hadith 9726
عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((يُحْشَرُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَمْثَالَ الذَّرِّ فِي صُوَرِ النَّاسِ يَعْلُوهُمْ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنَ الصِّغَارِ حَتَّى يَدْخُلُوا سِجْنًا فِي جَهَنَّمَ يُقَالُ لَهُ بُولَسُ فَتَعْلُوهُمْ نَارُ الْأَنْيَارِ يُسْقَوْنَ مِنْ طِينَةِ الْخَبَالِ عِصَارَةِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The arrogant will be gathered on the Day of Judgment in the form of small ants in the shape of men, humiliation and disgrace will cover them from all sides, until they are taken into a prison in Hell called "Bulus." There, the fire of fires will engulf them, and they will be given to drink from "Teenat al-Khabal," which is the pus of the people of Hell.
Hadith 9727
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ يَتَبَخْتَرُ فِي حُلَّةٍ إِذْ أَمَرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَأَخَذَتْهُ وَهُوَ يَتَجَلْجَلُ فِيهَا أَوْ يَتَجَرْجَرُ فِيهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ))
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man was walking arrogantly in a garment, Allah Almighty commanded the earth regarding him, so the earth seized him, and he will continue to sink in it until the Day of Resurrection.
Hadith 9728
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ شَابٌّ يَمْشِي فِي حُلَّةٍ يَتَبَخْتَرُ فِيهَا مُسْبِلًا إِزَارَهُ إِذْ بَلَعَتْهُ الْأَرْضُ فَهُوَ يَتَجَلْجَلُ فِيهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Once, a young man was walking arrogantly, wearing a garment, and he had let his lower garment hang below his ankles. Suddenly, the earth swallowed him up, and he will continue to sink into it until the Day of Resurrection.
