The extract of Shaik Daee Ahmed Moait’s talk
He started by calling our attention to
Surah Baqarah – Aayah No. 165
“And yet among the people are those who take other than Allah equals to Him. They love them as they should love Allah. But those who believe are stronger in love for Allah. And if only they who have wronged would consider that when they see the punishment, they will be certain that all power belongs to Allah and that Allah is severe in punishment.”

Whoever loves anybody, anything or even oneself equal to or more than Allah is in grave error. The quality of a Fasiq [defiantly disobedient] was highlighted as one who is in a state of continuous sinning despite of the knowledge of the sin. This happens to be the highest level of sin before Kufr. The people in the early Islaam were of the view on whether to give an Islamic burial to a Fasiq or throw his body into desert. Love of Allah is a duty, and is a sign of a Momin. Ask yourself who is the most beloved to me?

When Allah swt created Adam and us, he created two major diseases with us – Arrogance and Envy. If a person has these two qualities, even in ducts they will destroy him completely. Having these two qualities one cannot have true emaan, in spite of the fact he or she has good deeds. They are the true obstacles of all goodness. Prophet Mohammed [PBUH] said that a dot [atom] of arrogance prohibits one from entering Jannah. Envy destroys a person both internally and externally.
