			smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu Lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah Allah Allah, he was the
woman Hala and my birth. Brothers and sisters, I want to talk to you about arrogance and pride and
the difference between the two islamically. Are we allowed to be prideful? Are we allowed to have
pride? Or at the same time? Can we ask ourselves? Are we allowed to be arrogant? question is what is
the difference between the two? So let's take an example of a police. Right? It please, when Allah
subhanho wa Taala created Adam alayhis salam, he commanded the angels and from amongst them was the
police to bow down mix the dude in front of automatic Santa and it bleeds himself he didn't want to
		
00:00:55 --> 00:01:37
			make sujood and he thought that because he was made out of fire. And because Adam alayhis salaam was
made out of clay and soil from this earth, that he was a better component or made up of a better
component. So he felt that he was better than Adam Allah has said him as a human being in his
creation. Therefore he didn't need to bow down and follow the command of Allah Subhana Allah to
Allah. So that is showing us an example of arrogance. And that is how at least was arrogant towards
the command of Allah subhana wa tada showing that he knew what was better. On the flip side, when we
look at pride. Now, are we allowed to be proud to be Muslim, for example? Yes, there's nothing wrong
		
00:01:37 --> 00:02:15
			with that. And yes, we should be proud to be Muslim, we should not have any issues with for example,
putting our foot in the sink and making blue in a public bathroom. That is something that is that
that is completely fine. And there's nothing wrong with that. So we should be happy. And we should
be proud of who we are and the individuals that we are and the life that we live and the commands
that we follow from Allah subhanho wa Taala as well as some of the profits in the long run even a
salon. So being proud, is permissible being arrogant isn't now how is it that we can show arrogance
without even sometimes knowing it within our Deen or when it comes to anybody and worship a very
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:53
			simple example brothers and sisters, and this is something where I want each and every one of us to
pay attention to you know, sometimes we forget to pray Our Salah or we feel as though you know, I'll
just pray later. Or for example, some people go the distance to say I don't even need to pray, right
I don't need to pray because there's no reason for it. And you know, there's not really a purpose
towards the prayer I'm not seeing any change in my life for example, so I don't need to pray that is
challenging the last panel that I had so you are arrogant, over the command of Allah subhana wa tada
and what he has prescribed, in fact, made compulsory upon each and every one of us, which is to pray
		
00:02:53 --> 00:03:31
			to Allah subhanho wa Taala five times a day. And the same thing applies to all of the other aspects
of our Deen when you think you know what's better for you, above what Allah Subhana Allah commanded
for us or placed upon us, then you're being arrogant towards the command of Allah subhanho wa Taala
thus, you're challenging. Just like at least challenge the last panel with data you are challenging
the command of Allah subhana wa tada showing that you think you know best. So brothers and sisters,
that's a simple reminder for each and every one of us to know the difference between pride as well
as arrogance, and how we as Muslim men can stay away from arrogance. Stay away from what displeases
