[38].Surah Suad: Ayat 73-74

৭৩. অতঃপর সমস্ত ফেরেশতাই একযোগে সেজদায় নত হল, 

৭৪. কিন্তু ইবলীস; সে অহংকার করল এবং অস্বীকারকারীদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত হয়ে গেল।

Ayat 73. So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them:

Ayat 74. Except Ibis (Satan) he was proud and was one of the disbelievers.

Tafseer of Surah Suad Ayat 73. So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together: Ayat 74. Not so Iblis: he was haughty, and became one of those who reject Faith. Arrogance (self-love) is thus the root of Evil and of Unfaith.

Hazrat Abdullah bin Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah  [SAWW](PBUH) 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  [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah is Beautiful, He loves beauty. Arrogance means ridiculing and rejecting the Truth and despising people.'' [Muslim Book 01, Chapter 40, Hadith # 0164].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah As-Suad Ayat 74. “he was proud and was one of the disbelievers”The Hadith says that a man who has even an iota of pride in his heart will be barred from entering Jannah. The Hadith word used for the smallest amount means in Arabic either the smallest ant or the particle which is radiated by sun-rays and seen through a wall-chink. Obviously, such a particle has almost a non-existent amount, but even this much is disapproved by Allah. If pride incites a man to deny the existence of Allah and His Revelation, he is sure to be thrown into Hell. He also faces Divine displeasure and the danger of infernal fire if mere consideration of riches, physical beauty, social and intellectual prominence and family status makes him proud and self-conceited and he looks down upon others, or persists in the denial of Truth. First he will receive punishment and only then will be admitted into Jannah. A good dress, however, is not counted the sign of pride.
