Be humble, Respect others, Do not boast about your accomplishments or possessions .

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned against having pride and arrogance. He said that the most disgraceful person in front of Allah is someone who calls himself king of kings. This means that no one should think they are better than anyone else or have more power than anyone else because everyone is equal in front of Allah. It also teaches us to be humble and not boast about our accomplishments or possessions because it will only lead to humiliation in front of God. We should always remember that we are all servants to God and no one can claim superiority over another person.
