Ramadhan Victory -- Be Humble

Ramadhan Victory -- Be Humble 

وَلَا تُصَعِّرْ خَدَّكَ لِلنَّاسِ وَلَا تَمْشِ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مَرَحًا إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُورٍ

And do not turn your cheek [in contempt] toward people and do not walk 

through the earth exultantly. Indeed, Allah does not like self-deluded and boastful people. [Quran, Luqman 31:18]

When Allah asked the devil  to prostrate to Adam, he said “I am better than him. You created him from dirt and you created me from fire.” When Adam was corrected by the Divine, he turned repentant and humbled. It is that humility that Allah honors Adam. It was said that even the word Adam has the meaning of humble sand of earth. It is the humble sand of earth that you should see yourself for what you, a servant of Allah. So you don't have an exulted sense of self but rather you see your need for Allah and you act with humility. It is in our humility that we will find all our honor and success This humility gives us the keys to uphold good character in dealing with those around us. We don't see ourselves as better than anyone else because we and they are all Allah's creation and Allah's servants, And that is the way of Allah's beloved Messenger (ﷺ)

Let us let reflect on our reality and acting with true humility before the greatness of Allah.
