💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Some of the qualities of actually arrogant people:
1] They believe they are above everyone or behave as if no one can reach their level of superiority.
2] Since they consider themselves to be "perfect", they are not teachable. Anything you try to teach them is unwelcome because they either "already knew that" or your information according to them is "insignificant".
3] They can't afford to be helpful, generous and protective. In fact, they expect others to be the ones to serve them and treat them with preferential treatment for being "royal" or "VIPs".
4] While it's not okay for anybody to criticize them, they're allowed to ridicule and gossip about others anytime. Certain rules and regulations don't apply to them, because they're "special", "entitled" or "privileged" to do whatever they wish whenever they like. They're the kind of shoppers who insist on cutting in lines because they're "too high-class" to wait and queue with the other customers.
5] They dislike being proven wrong, even if they recognize the truth on the inside. Admitting they're incorrect, apologizing for a mistake, and agreeing with indesputable facts are too burdensome for them.
6] Jealousy is one of their primary traits. Seeing how nobody else deserves to be as fabulous and remarkable as them, they get all jelly (jealous) when they spot other individuals surpassing them or borrowing their limelight.
7] They are extremely materialistic and judge people by how they thrive financially. They'd hate to be caught wearing the same outfit within a month, they abhor simplicity, and look down on those who aren't as affluent as them.
8] They act as if they excrete pure gold and assume they're eternally "invincible".
AstaghfurAllah Al-'Atheem.
9] Crying to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala when saying Du'a, seeking Allah's Forgiveness, and performing Sujood properly are things that arrogant humans refuse to do.

📖 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 (kibr) 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 SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "No one who has the weight of a seed of faith in his heart will enter Hellfire."
