Sorry to be a party pooper but we shouldn't be posting stories about Allah doing something He didn't do - appearing to woodcutters and pulling celebraties out of ponds.. na udhu billah!
OO I just notice (I was readin too fast)
Yeah I agree Too about the Lord Thing, It sounds realy wrong astafurallah
you could change it to rich king or something like that
because the moral is good but the Lord thing is just like christians do and its wrong like Brother islamirama And Muslima_sis said.
(and btw Sis Serene could you please explain me the difference about bein honourable and bein proud because my English is not ThAT good )

Yea...the part where supposedly God appeared and went in the water wasnt very necessary. The moral was nice but the way the story was written...not good :X

Mahmud ibn Lubayd reported, "God's messenger said: "The thing I fear for you the most is ash-Shirk al-Asghar (minor shirk)."
The companions asked "Oh! messenger of God, what is minor Shirk?"
He replied "Ar-Riya (showing off), for verily God will say on the Day of Resurrection when people are receiving their rewards, 'Go to those for whom you were showing off in the material world and see if you can find any reward from them."
Yeah I know Bein Proud is Minor shirk its arrogant I know That
but what means Bein honourable??

Yes but You can also Say The Sahabas(RA) were honourable People I think it means more that you are Respected by others by for example Good behaviour or good things you have done.
so it has nothin to do with bein proud I think
Allahu Alim

Honorable:
Bringing distinction or recognition
not disposed to cheat or defraud; not deceptive or fraudulent
adhering to ethical and moral principles;
honest, noble, just.
Basically it means someone who is of good character and moral and ethic values who always follow good noble values and principles. It is a character trait that you are distinguished by and stand out from other people.
Being proud is limited to self only and not others, other's can be proud of you but you too can be proud of yourself but it's not the same. An honorable person is recognized by everyone as a good decent person of great character and adaabs. Where as anyone can be proud of themselves. Hitler could be proud of himself for all he did as is Bush and as are US soldiers who rape innocent iraqi women and then jump on youtube to boast about it.
the two are not the same.
If you're proud that you got a lot of work done today then that is ok. If you are proud that you are better than others or what not then you have sinned and paved a path to hellfire for yourself.
Also, if you are pleased with someone then you praise them in their absence and not in their presence. If you do that then per hadith, dirt/dust should be thrown in your face. By praising someone in their presence, you put that person in danger of having pride and leading them into doom.
^^ The last part freaks me out cuz...people think I'm perfect with everything just cause I choose to get closer to Allah and try to stick to Islam. And I have to say "no don't say that, im not perfect...." cuz im not lol. So yea its creepy...
May Allah protect us, forgive us of our shortcomings and grant us all Jannah InshaAllah, Ameen!

1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
