433/556 عن أبي هريرة؛ أن رجلاً أتى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم – وكان جميلاً- فقال : حبب إلي الجمال، وأُعطيت ما ترى! حتى ما أحب أن يفوقني أحدٌ، إما قال : بشراك نعل. وإما قال: بشسعٍ أحمر. آلِكبْرُ ذاك؟ قال: "لا؛ ولكن الكبر من بطر الحق(9)، وغمطَ الناس".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he was handsome. He said: "Love for being beautiful has been placed in my heart, and I have also been granted this (beauty) as you can see. I do not even like that anyone surpasses me in this (beauty), or he said, even by the strap of a shoe, or he said, by a red strap. Is this arrogance?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, but arrogance is to reject the truth and to look down upon people."
