We should fear looking down at people more than we fear sins. The reasons are: 1) Sins are easily identifiable, whereas arrogance is in the heart and cannot always be seen. We can go years until we realize we're smug. 2) Sins are forgiven by tawba and good deeds, which are not that hard to do. Arrogance, however, is only broken by failure and humiliation, which are much more painful. 3) Allah says He loves the penitent, who are essentially sinners who always repent right away. But He "does not love the arrogant." 4) Everyone except Prophets fall into mistakes yet can still enter Paradise. But "nobody with an atoms weight of arrogance can enter heaven." -Dr Shadee Elmasry

“Perennialism is not just antithetical to orthodox Islamic teachings in the Qur’an, Sunnah and Sunni theology, but it is an imposition from those who believe - knowingly or not - that a Western universalist interpretation of religion is superior to what Muslims have believed in for all of Islamic History.” —Ustadh Samir Hussain
