Abu Dharr reported that the Prophet ﷺ said,⁣

💠 For Fire Starts From a Small Spark 💠

It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
❝Beware of trivial sins, for they will accumulate until they destroy a man.❞
And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave an example, likening them to people who stopped to camp in the wilderness, and they wanted to prepare some food, so one man went and brought a stick, and another man brought a stick, until they had gathered a huge pile and lit a fire, and whatever they put in the pot was cooked as a result.
[Ahmad, classed as Saheeh by al-Albani.]

🔖 Beware of sins, both minor and major, for most fires start due to minor causes and one sin leads to another.

💠 Seek the Middle Ground 💠

Abu Nu'aym reported that Wahb ibn Munnabih, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
❝Verily, everything has two ends and a middle. If you hold one of the ends, the other will be skewed. If you hold the middle, the two ends will be balanced. You must seek the middle ground in all things.❞
[Hilyat al-Awliya', 4818]

💠 The Prophet ﷺ Gave Charity Without Fear of Poverty 💠⁣
⁣
Anas ibn Malik reported:⁣
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was never asked anything for the sake of Islam but that he would give it. A man came to the Prophet and he gave him many sheep, so the man returned to his people and he said, ❝O my people! Embrace Islam, for Muhammad gives in charity as if he has no fear of poverty!❞⁣
[Saheeh Muslim]⁣
⁣
🔖 In another narration, Anas said, “Indeed, a man would embrace Islam desiring worldly gains. He would not practice Islam but for a while, until Islam became more beloved to him than the world and everything in it.”⁣

💠 Ask Allah For All Provision is in His Hand 💠⁣
⁣
Allah ﷻ says,⁣
⁣
اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ رَزَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ ۖ ⁣
⁣
❝Allah is the one who created you, then provided for you, then will cause you to die, and then will give you life.❞⁣
[ar-Rum 30:40]⁣
⁣
🔖 He is the Creator of provision and of those to whom He sends provision; He is the Creator of the means that make provision reach people and is the Creator of the causes that make them enjoy it. So it must be attributed to Him alone, and thanks must be given to Him for it, for He is the owner of it and the one who bestows it. [Sifat Allah ‘azza wa jall by Shaykh ‘Alawi ibn ‘Abd al-Qadir as-Saqqaf (175-177)]⁣

وَوَصَّيْنَا الْإِنسَانَ بِوَالِدَيْهِ إِحْسَانًا ۖ

💠 Allah Hates Arrogant People 💠

Allah ﷻ says:

وَلَا تُصَعِّرْ خَدَّكَ لِلنَّاسِ وَلَا تَمْشِ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَرَحًا ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُورٍ ۞ وَاقْصِدْ فِي مَشْيِكَ وَاغْضُضْ مِن صَوْتِكَ ۚ إِنَّ أَنكَرَ الْأَصْوَاتِ لَصَوْتُ الْحَمِيرِ ۞

❝And turn not your face away from men with pride, nor walk in insolence through the earth. Verily, Allah likes not any arrogant boaster. And be moderate (or show no insolence) in your walking, and lower your voice. Verily, the harshest of all voices is the braying of the asses.❞
[Luqman 31:18-19]

🔖 Al-Qurtubi said: The phrase “nor walk in insolence through the earth” is a prohibition of arrogance and is enjoining humility. Marah (translated here as insolence) is excessive joy, or it was said that it means being arrogant in walking, or thinking too highly of oneself. [Tafseer al-Qurtubi, 10/260]
