Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلَا إِنِّي أَبْرَأُ إِلَى كُلِّ خَلِيلٍ مِنْ خُلَّةٍ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ صَاحِبَكُمْ خَلِيلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Whoever has even an atom's weight of arrogance in his heart will not enter Paradise.' A man said: 'But a man likes his garment to be fine and his sandals to be fine.' He said: 'Indeed Allah is Beautiful and loves beauty. Arrogance is rejecting the truth and looking down upon people.'
