Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace

Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace





It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud (RadhiAllahu 'anhu):

that the Apostle of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) observed:

He who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of pride shall not enter Paradise.

A person (amongst his hearers) said: Verily a person loves that his dress should be fine, and his shoes should be fine.

He (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) remarked: Verily, Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace. Pride is disdaining the truth (out of self-conceit) and contempt for the people.

[Sahih Muslim - Book 1 - Hadith 164]
