Do not be arrogant

Arrogance is rejecting the truth and not following it. Unfortunately it is a severe disease of the heart for which on the Day of Judgment, it will be said to the arrogant ones:
Enter the gates of Hell to abide therein, and (indeed) what an evil abode of the arrogant! (Surah Ghafer, 40:76)
Arrogance is thinking you are better than others when in reality, only Allah SWT knows who is better in terms of good deeds. For those who continue in their arrogance, let them be warned with a SEVERE warning:
The Prophet SAW said: “Paradise and Hell Fire have argued. Hell fire said: Inside me are the merciless and the arrogant people . . . and Allah has judged between them . . . You (Hell Fire) are my torture, with you I torture whom I will . . .”
Know also that Allah SWT removes his guidance from the arrogant:
“I shall turn away from My Ayat (verses of the Qur’an) those who behave arrogantly on the earth, in a wrongful manner.” (Surah Al-Araf, 7:146)
Rejecting Allah and refusing to worship him is the severest form of arrogance:
“Verily! Those who disdain My worship (because of arrogance), they will surely enter Hell in humiliation!” (surah Ghafer, 40:60)
May Allah SWT protect us from arrogance and give us the ability to worship Allah in complete submission to Him that He may be pleased with us ameen.
