Hadith: And verily, Allah revealed to me that you must be humble, so that no one boasts of oneself before another or oppresses another

عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ حِمَارٍ أَخِي بَنِي مُجَاشِعٍ رَضيَ اللهُ عنه قَالَ: قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ خَطِيبًا، فَقَالَ: وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ:
«وَإِنَّ اللهَ أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ أَنْ تَوَاضَعُوا حَتَّى لَا يَفْخَرَ أَحَدٌ عَلَى أَحَدٍ، وَلَا يَبْغِي أَحَدٌ عَلَى أَحَدٍ».
[صحيح] - [رواه مسلم] - [صحيح مسلم: 2865]

‘Iyād ibn Himār, the brother of Bani Mujāshi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him), reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood among us one day and delivered a sermon, in which he said: and then he narrated the Hadīth that includes:
"And verily, Allah revealed to me that you must be humble, so that no one boasts of oneself before another or oppresses another."
[Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by Muslim] - [Sahih Muslim - 2865]

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood among his Companions to deliver a sermon, and among what he said was: Indeed, Allah revealed to him that people must show humility toward one another—by lowering their wings to others and displaying gentleness of character—so that no one should boast of greatness, pride, or superiority over others due to lineage, wealth, or anything else. And so that no one should do wrong or transgress against another.

Benefits from the Hadith

1. The Hadīth encourages humility and warns against arrogance and looking down upon others.
2. Prohibition of transgression and boasting.
3. Humility for the sake of Allah has two meanings: First: To humble yourself before the religion of Allah, never feeling above it, nor disdain toward it and toward fulfilling its rulings. Second: To humble yourself toward the servants of Allah, not out of fear of them or hope for what they possess, but purely for the sake of Allah Almighty.
