25. Humility & Arrogance

Humility                                                              25
No man was more loved (by the companions) than was the Messenger of God. Yet, they never stood up for him because he did not like it (out of modesty).
--Tradition by Tirmizi. Narrator: Anas.

Arrogance                                                          25
Whoever is pleased that people should show him honour by standing up. let him seek his abode in the Fire.
--Tradition by Tirmizi and Abu Daud. Narrator: Mu’awiyah.
