Sayyiduna Imam Zayn-ul-‘Aabideen ‘Ali Bin Husayn رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه states, ‘If the body does not get ill, then it becomes arrogant; and there is no goodness in an arrogant body.’ (Allah Walon Ki Baatayn, vol. 3, p. 194)
The reason for Fir’awn claiming to be god
A pious predecessor رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه states, ‘The reason for Fir’awn claiming to be god was that he remained healthy for a long time, such that four hundred years passed, but he had not had a headache, nor had he ever had a fever, nor did he ever have any pain in any vein. If he had a headache in half of the head even for just one day, so let alone claiming to be god, he would have actually abandoned useless activities.’ (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, vol. 4, p. 861)
