from undermining (belittling) anyone other than yourself. It may very well be that the victim of your arrogance (vanity) is better, closer and superior to you in the Court of Allah Almighty.” (Az-Zawajir vol. 2, pp. 11)

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُمَا stated: This prohibition includes taunting a Muslim who has repented from a previous sin. Likewise referring to another Muslim as a dog, donkey, and pig is also prohibited. The same verdict applies to affixing offensive or insulting names or labels to Muslims that express their faults or makes them feel offensive. All these are examples of this Divine prohibition. (Tafseer Khaza’in-ul-Irfan, pp. 950, Surah Al-Hujurat, Ayah 11)

The glorious Companion Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ood رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ declared: “I fear that Almighty Allah might transform me into a dog if I condescendingly (arrogantly) taunt another human being.” (Tafseer Saawi, vol. 5, pp. 1994, Surah Hujurat, Ayah 11)

Dear Islamic sisters! So you see! Believing yourself to be superior to others; belittling and undermining pious Muslims without any Islamic justification; taunting them in any way, shape or form; can all have terribly horrendous consequences. Therefore if any of you are afflicted with this fatal disease you should act smart and resolve to be a humble individual. You should leave the authority of judging the superiority or inferiority of humans to All-Benevolent Allah and His Most Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Up till day all the Muslims that you have condescendingly (arrogantly) offended you should if possible search for them and apologise. Along with this you must repent to Allah Almighty and seek His forgiveness and also pray for your salvation (deliverance) from this objectionable (offensive) behaviour.

صَلُّوۡ اعَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                                                   صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
