اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، وَجَرِيرٌ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنِ الْأَغَرِّ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: الْكِبْرِيَاءُ رِدَائِي وَالْعِزُّ إِزَارِي، فَمَنْ نَازَعَنِي وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمَا قَظَمْتُهُ أَلْقَيْتُهُ فِي النَّارِ ".
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "Allah says: Grandeur is My cloak and honor is My «إزار», so whoever tries to snatch either of them from Me, I will throw him into Hell."
Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Abdush Shakoor Tirmidhi
Benefits:
From the aforementioned hadith, it is understood that one should safeguard oneself from arrogance, because arrogance is an attribute of Allah Dhul-Jalal. And whoever displays arrogance, it is as if he is claiming to share in the attributes of Allah Dhul-Jalal.
Just as "rida’" is the garment that a person wears over the upper part of his body, and "izar" refers to the lower garment which is used as a waist-wrapper. A person does not allow anyone to share in his rida’ and izar, so the rank and status of Allah Dhul-Jalal is exceedingly lofty and exalted. By "dragging" is meant that whoever tries to be characterized by, or claims, the attributes that belong to Allah Dhul-Jalal, the outcome for such people is Hellfire, because even the slightest amount of arrogance is not liked by Allah Dhul-Jalal.
As is mentioned in the hadith, it is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud radi Allahu anhu that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: “Whoever has even a mustard seed’s weight of arrogance in his heart will not enter Paradise.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, no. 4173. Its chain is authentic.)
For more about arrogance and the outcome of such people, see Hadith: 69–79.
