The Sin of Arrogance

SUMMARY: Arrogance is not tolerated in Islam and it is defined as ridiculing and rejecting the truth and despising people.

'Abdullah bin Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet said, "He who has, in his heart, an ant's weight of arrogance will not enter Jannah". Someone said: "A man likes to wear beautiful clothes and shoes?" Messenger of Allah said, "Allah is Beautiful, He loves beauty. Arrogance means ridiculing and rejecting the Truth and despising people". Muslim.
وعن عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه عن النبى قال‏:‏ “لا يدخل الجنة من كان في قلبه مثقال ذرة من كبر” فقال رجل” إن الرجل يحب أن يكون ثوبه حسناً ونعله حسناً‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ “إن الله جميل يحب الجمال الكبر بطر الحق وغمط الناس” ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
