Hadith Commentary:
The root evil is arrogance, pride, and conceit, which are intensely disliked by Allah. This arrogance, pride, and conceit—however they may manifest—are blameworthy.

Shaykh Abdul Sattar al-Hammad
Hadith Commentary:
(1)
The state that arises from seeing someone is referred to as "nazar" (the gaze). If one sees a humble person, feelings of mercy are produced towards him, and if one sees an arrogant person, anger is aroused. In the same way, when Allah ta'ala sees someone letting his garment hang below the ankles out of arrogance, Allah ta'ala will be angry with him. As mentioned in the hadith, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said:
"Before you, a man once wore a garment and acted arrogantly, so Allah ta'ala became so angry with him that He commanded the earth, and it seized that person."
(Jami' al-Tirmidhi, Sifat al-Qiyamah, Hadith: 2491)
(2)
In any case, the real evil is a person acting arrogantly and becoming involved in pride and conceit, which is extremely disliked by Allah ta'ala. This arrogance, in whatever form it may be, is blameworthy.
And Allah knows best.

Benefits and Issues:
(1)
It is correct to immediately stop someone upon seeing them doing something wrong.
One should not think that perhaps he has already heard about this issue before.
(2)
When alerting someone to a mistake, one should speak with affection rather than anger—especially when addressing someone younger in age, it is appropriate to call him "son" or use another suitable term.
