💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Some examples of actual arrogance and self-amazement which we must avoid:
1] Being haughtily proud that Allah the Almighty guided you to study Islam, destined that you learn in an Islamic or Arabic university, or inspired you to be a student of knowledge, while feeling more superior and far better than those who aren't as religious or knowledgable as you.
2] Refusing to share Islamic knowledge and helpful tips so other Muslims can benefit from, because you feel that being guided or pious is a huge privilage which not many people deserve. Intentionally withholding beneficial knowledge when you are capable of doing Da'wah to assist others in their Deen is almost similar to selfishness.
3] Scornfully laughing or making fun of someone who is making effort to be a good Muslim, while assuming they're just pretending or they can never be as righteous as you.
AstaghfurAllah Al-'Atheem.

📖 Abdullah Ibn Mas’ud RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "No one who has the weight of a seed of arrogance in his heart will enter Paradise." Someone said, “But a man loves to have beautiful clothes and shoes.” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, Allah is Beautiful and He loves beauty. Arrogance means rejecting the truth and looking down on people."
In another narration, the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “No one who has the weight of a seed of faith in his heart will enter Hellfire.”
