ﻦﻴﻤﻠﺴﻤﻟا رﺎﻘﺘﺣا ﻢﻳﺮﺤﺗ بﺎﺑ
Prohibition of Despising Muslims
Allah, the Exalted, says:
"
O you who believe! Let not a group scoff at another group; it may be that the latter are better than the
former. Nor let (some) women scoff at other women; it may be that the latter are better than the former. Nor
defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames. How bad is it to insult one's brother after having
Faith [i.e., to call your Muslim brother (a faithful believer) as: `O sinner', or `O wicked']. And whosoever
does not repent, then such are indeed Zalimun (wrongdoers).
'' (49:11)
"
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter
.'' (105:1)

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
It is enough evil
for a Muslim to look down upon his (Muslim) brother
.''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith has already been mentioned (Hadith No. 1571). Its meanings are evident and need no
elaboration.

Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "
The haughty, even with pride
equal to a mustard seed in his heart, will not enter Jannah
.'' A man enquired: "What about that a person likes fine
dress and fine shoes?'' He said: "
Allah is Beautiful and likes beauty. Pride amounts to disclaiming truth out of self-
esteem, and despising people
.''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith has already been mentioned (Hadith No. 216). Imam An-Nawawi has interpreted the
words "
Batar-ul-Haq
'' as "
Daf`-ul-Haq
'' that is to evade the truth and return it to the person who says it, which
practically means evasion. To dress well does not come in the category of pride, as people generally consider it. In
fact, pride constitutes what is mentioned in this Hadith.

Jundub bin `Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"
Once someone said: `By Allah! Allah will not forgive such and such (a person).' Thereupon Allah, the Exalted and
the Glorious, said: `Who is he who takes an oath in My Name that I will not grant pardon to so-and-so? I have
granted pardon to so-and-so and rendered your good deeds fruitless
.'''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
Some people become self-conceited as a result of their excessive worship to the point that they start
disparaging and making low estimates of their fellow Muslims and their deeds, little knowing that Allah, Glorious is
He, is of vast forgiveness. They do not realize that if Allah so wills, He can destroy all their deeds and consign them
to Hell and send the other people who have been disparaged and underestimated to Jannah. Therefore, one should
never become proud of his piety nor should one consider others of little value or good deeds, as only Allah Alone
knows what is inside our hearts.
