CONCEIT (KIBR)

  The twelfth ailment of the heart is arrogance. Vanity or Conceit

 is one'sholding or considering one's self to be better than others. An individual

with this disease feels smugness in his heart when he thinks

himself to be better than others. 'Ujb (confidence) likewise is an inclination

of prevalence. For this situation one doesn't consider oneself

better than a particular individual or people yet from a summed up perspective

considers one's self and deeds to be prevalent. Pride is a very

unpalatable quality and is precluded (harâm). It is an indication of

neglecting one's Maker, Rabb. Numerous strict men experience the ill effects of

this disease. Rasûlullah 'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' states in a

hadîth-I-sherîf: "An individual who has a molecule's weight of pride in

his heart won't enter Heaven." something contrary to vanity is

tawâdu', which is a sensation of uniformity. A modest individual holds

himself equivalent with others. He doesn't hold himself to be all things considered

better or mediocre than others. Conceit is an entirely significant quality for

a person. Rasûlullah 'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' states

in a hadîth-I-sherîf: "How fortunate for humble individuals." A humble

individual doesn't consider himself sub-par compared to other people. He is

neither a base nor a lethargic individual. He makes money by

reasonable (halâl) means and gives a lot to noble cause or as a gift to

others. He lays out colleagues with researchers or researchers.

He likewise feels sympathy toward needy individuals. In the accompanying

hadîths Rasûlullah 'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' expresses: "A

humble individual who makes money by allowable (halâl) implies,

who has a pleasing nature, who is exceptionally gentle towards others,

what's more, who doesn't hurt any other individual is an exceptionally lovely individual,"

furthermore "An individual who lowers himself for Allâhu ta'âlâ

will be raised to prevalent positions by Allâhu ta'âlâ." Treating a

prideful individual with equivalent vain way of behaving is reasonable

(jâiz). Allâhu ta'âlâ is glad (Mutakabbir) toward His animals.

Allâhu ta'âlâ has pride (Kibr). An individual will procure rewards

(thawâb) when he treats a proud individual with similarly

proud way of behaving. Any individual who treats a proud individual

unassumingly has done unfairness to himself (thusly). It is too

admissible to be vain towards the individuals who have digressed

from the correct way and towards rich individuals. Answering with

proud way of behaving towards them isn't with the end goal of

showing one's prevalence yet for awakening them over the real world.

Being glad and haughty against the foe during a conflict is very

fulfilling. This kind of haughtiness is designated "huyalâ." An individual

giving contributions ought to have a kind of pride blended in with cheer and

delight. His pride or Conceit isn't coordinated toward the collector however rather it

is planned to scorn the given property or cash. It demonstrates

that one isn't a captive of property or cash. Rasûlullah 'sallAllâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' states in a hadîth-I-sherîf: "The giving

hand is better than the getting one." Being glad towards

deceivers or the individuals who act conspicuously is additionally reasonable.

It is passable to be modest towards the people who are underneath one's

rank or position yet one ought to be mindful so as to keep away from limits.

Over the top modesty is designated "tamalluk". Unnecessary modesty is

just reasonable toward one's profound expert or toward an

Islamic researcher. Unnecessary modesty (tamalluk) isn't passable

toward any other individual. It is accounted for in a hadîth-I-sherîf,

"Tamalluk isn't a piece of Islamic morals."

Sonnet:

To an instructor and clinical specialist,

Important to do "tamalluk".

The previous for internal soul, the last genuinely,

Serve for restoring these infections.

Among the different vain ways of behaving, the most horrendously awful kind is to

be vain toward Allâhu ta'âlâ. Nimrod was a model for

this sort of pride. He pronounced himself to be God. He tossed the

prophet into fire since he had been sent by Allâhu ta'âlâ to

counsel him. Pharaoh was another of these imbeciles. He

proclaimed his divinity in Egypt and said that he was the strong god

of Egypt. Allâhu ta'âlâ sent prophet Moses (Mûsâ) 'alaihissalâm' to prompt him yet he wouldn't accept and from that point he

was suffocated by Allâhu ta'âlâ in the Suez Ocean. Individuals who are

comparable in nature, i.e., who don't have confidence in that frame of mind of the

universe, are called agnostics (dahris). [People with comparative

skeptical disposition show up in consistently. For instance,

Mao and Stalin killed and tormented great many individuals and

obliterated strict men, Islamic researchers and books and incurred

dread and repulsiveness upon their countries. They forced their cravings

by utilizing force, which gave them an egotistical fulfillment. They started

to have dreams that they had the unrivaled characteristics

moved by the Maker and expressed so to other people. They restricted

bringing of Islamic writing into their nation and restricted

understanding them. They executed the individuals who discussed religion or

Allâhu ta'âlâ. Lastly, they couldn't safeguard themselves

from the Fury of Allâhu ta'âlâ and became obliterated and

destroyed. They are recalled with perdition and revulsion

like their authentic companions who were additionally recollected with

scorn. Certain individuals who were programmed and harmed with

the destructive agnostic misleading publicity of Mao and Stalin accepted

power in some Middle Easterner nations through slyness. These individuals

begun to mimic those socialist chiefs and became awful

tyrants and begun to rehearse a system which is unsafe to

Islam. They didn't take an illustration from history, i.e., how the lives

of those dictators had finished with incredible misfortune. They don't think

about the extraordinary catastrophes looking for them in this world or the

disciplines in the following world.]

Many individuals additionally peered down on our Prophet Rasûlullah

'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' and said, "Is this the Prophet that

is sent by Allâhu ta'âlâ?" The unbelievers of Mecca said, "It

would have been exceptional assuming this Qur'ân had slid to one of the

heads of Mecca." This prideful way of behaving of unbelievers toward

incredible men of religion has occurred all through the Islamic

history. Such conduct like Conceit by these frail animals, who are

uninformed even about the development of their own bodies, is a

formal statement of war against their Proprietor and Maker, who is the

most remarkable in all regards. Once, Satan additionally acted with

pride and said that he was made out of fire and Adam was

made out of dirt, along these lines, he was unrivaled when Allâhu ta'âlâ

requested the heavenly messengers to prostrate themselves before Adam 'alaihissalâm' and consequently Satan revolted toward Allâhu ta'âlâ. When the

demon saw that the fire was giving light and was extremely glorious,

it believed that it was better than water and soil. In actuality the genuine

predominance is through lowliness, not through pride. Will be there in a jiffy

soil in Heaven and it will possess an aroma like musk. There is no fire in

Heaven. Fire is a method for discipline in Damnation. Fire in this world

annihilates anything that it contacts however then again soil is helpful

as a structure material. Animals live on the dirt (earth).

Treasures are covered under the dirt. Ka'ba was worked from the dirt.

While the radiance of fire closes the murkiness of the evening and brings

light unto earth, the dirt makes blossoms and organic products develop. Hadrat

Muhammad 'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam', the most predominant of

all made creatures, dwells in the dirt.

Rasûlullah 'sall-Allâhu 'alaihi wa sal-lam' states in the

following hadîth-I-sherîfs: "Allâhu ta'âlâ pronounces to us: 'Kibriyâ

(Omnipotence), Prevalence and 'Azamat (Significance) are My

Ascribes. Shouldst Conceit there be anybody to attempt to share these

Credits with Me, I will toss them into Damnation without appearing

them any leniency." ' and "Anybody with an iota's weight of pride

'Kibr' in his heart won't enter Heaven." When he was inquired

whether the individuals who like to wear clean garments and utilize clean shoes

would be remembered for this classification, he replied, "Allâhu ta'âlâ is

all Generous (Jamîl) and loves the individuals who have beauty (jamâl)"

or then again as such, Allâhu ta'âlâ loves elegant individuals. [People

who purify themselves to abstain from having a monstrous and nauseating

appearance or all together not to get an epithet for having a monstrous

appearance or to look great and wonderful are called

"individuals having elegance." The things that are important to help

life scarcely are delegated "minimum essentials". Utilizing "uncovered

necessities" in a method for looking exquisite and delightful is considered as

having effortlessness. For instance, having something to wear is a

"need" of life. While everybody needs garments to cover

themselves, to wear something in a design to look wonderful, implies

to have elegance. Any progressions made on one's body, on one's

attirements or on one's property with the end goal of

ornamentation, decoration or prevalence over others, are called

'zînat', which are things more than needed to safeguard one's

body, one's wellbeing, one's honor and worth. It isn't allowable

for a man to utilize "zînat" for any reason. Concerning ladies;

it isn't passable for them to wear articles of 'zînat' in the

presence of men nâ-mahram[1] to them. Each work and demonstration of

Allâhu ta'âlâ is wonderful. He additionally adores individuals with wonderful

ethics and character. This hadîth illuminates us that prideful

individuals, as different heathens, won't enter Heaven without

discipline. The objective for the individuals who can't enter Heaven

will be Heck, since there is no spot other than these two in the

From now on. Any individual who has a particle's weight of conviction will not

dwell in Damnation perpetually and will enter Heaven at last. Anybody

who has committed a grave sin and has not made tawba for it

(prior to death), on the off chance that he can't accomplish any mediation, will initially endure

the discipline he has merited and afterward will be conceded into

Heaven. When an individual has entered Heaven, he wil
