Hi all readers! In this article, I will explain the Hadith Qudsi about arrogance. I think we all know what arrogance is. Arrogance is a bad trait, and there is nothing good to be gained from having an arrogant nature. In fact, arrogance can eliminate one's inner happiness. In other words, arrogant people will never truly be happy.

In Islam, there are countless verses in the Quran and Hadith that explain the concept of arrogance and its negative effects. This is also true for Hadith Qudsi. There are many Hadith Qudsi that address arrogance. In this article, I will explain only three. Pay attention!

Hadith Qudsi About Arrogance

The Hadith Qudsi about arrogance that I mean are as follows:

قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى : الْكِبْرِيَاءُ رِدَائِيْ وَالْعُظْمَةُ إِزَارِيْ فَمَنْ نَازَعَنِيْ وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمَا قَذَفْتُهُ فِيْ النَّارِ

Allah Taala said, "Arrogance is My clothing and greatness is My sheath. Whoever challenges Me regarding one of them, I will certainly throw him into Hell."

قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى : الْكِبْرِيَاءِ رِدَائِيْ وَالعِزُّ إِزَارِيْ , مَنْ نَازَعَنِيْ فِيْ شَيْئٍ مِنْهُمَا عَذَّبْتُهُ

Allah Taala said, "Arrogance is My clothing and glory is My sheath. Whoever challenges Me regarding any aspect of them, I will surely torment him."

قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى : الْكِبْرِيَاءِ رِدَائِيْ , فَمَنْ نَازَعَنِيْ رِدَائِيْ قَصَمْتُهُ

Allah Taala says, "Arrogance is My clothing. Whoever disputes My clothing, I will surely destroy him."

All readers! There are some important things that we must understand about these Hadith Qudsi regarding arrogance. Pay attention!

Conclusion

The phrases "arrogance is My clothing (Allah's dress)" and "greatness and glory is My sheath (Allah's sheath)" mean that only Allah is worthy of arrogance, greatness, and glory. These qualities cannot be possessed by any creature.

The three Hadith Qudsi above explain that all beings are forbidden from being arrogant, feeling noble, or feeling great. Why? Because these characteristics are attributes of Allah, and no good can ever come from someone who has an arrogant nature, who feels noble, or who feels great.

In the three Hadith Qudsi above, Allah explains that He will torment those who are arrogant, who feel noble, and who feel great in Hell.

All readers! That is a brief explanation of the Hadith Qudsi about arrogance. Do you understand? If you have any questions, please ask!

As a Muslim woman, I feel truly grateful for this enlightening article on Hadith Qudsi about arrogance. The writer has successfully highlighted a very important topic that we all must be cautious about. Arrogance, as explained in this article, is not only a negative trait but a dangerous one that can lead to spiritual downfall. The clear explanation of the three Hadith Qudsi regarding arrogance was incredibly insightful.

What stood out to me was the reminder that arrogance is reserved for Allah alone. As stated in the Hadith, arrogance is Allah's clothing, and whoever challenges this divine attribute will face punishment. This perspective serves as a powerful reminder for all of us to humble ourselves before Allah and avoid the temptation of pride. It is a beautiful reminder that true greatness belongs only to Allah, and no one else can possess such a characteristic.

I also appreciate how the author has made the message so easy to understand. The explanations are clear and simple, making it easier for readers like me to internalize the lessons. The focus on how arrogance negatively impacts one's inner happiness resonates with me deeply. The article has made me more aware of the importance of humility in our daily lives as Muslims.

Thank you to the author for writing such a valuable and thought-provoking article. I believe that through understanding these Hadith Qudsi, we can all strive to be more humble and mindful of our behavior, as it is essential for both our spiritual and personal growth. May Allah guide us all to humility. Ameen!
