If he strives to attain a goal but isn't seeking help from Allaah, relying on Him and depending on Him to achieve it, then he will never gain this true love. For that which Allaah wills will be, and that which He does not will will not be.

The strongest and the most guided are the ones who are most perfect in their 'Uboodiyah to Allaah.

Disdainfulness

The one who submits to Him and to others is a Mushrik. The one who refuses to submit to Him is a Mustakbir (disdainful).

The Messenger said, "Whoever has in his heart an atom's weight of kibr (disdainfulness) will not enter al-Jannah" [Muslim]

Allaah has made al-kibr the opposite of al-eemaan, for al-kibr negates the reality of al-'uboodiyah.

The heart will not dispense with all created beings unless and until Allaah becomes its Lord other than Whom it does not worship.

Ash-Shirk is more dominant among the Christians, while al-Kibr is more dominant among the Jews

As regards the Christians:

They took their priests and their monks to be their lords beside Allaah, and (they also took as Lord) al- Masseh son of Mary, while they were commanded to worship none but one deity. None has the right to be worshipped but Him. Praise and Glory be to him Who is far from having partners they associate (with Him). [Soorah Al-Tawbah ayah 31]

As regards the Jews:

...Is it that whenever there comes to you a messenger with what you yourselves desire not, you treat him with disdain? Some you disbelieve in and some you kill.[Soorah Al-Baqarah ayah 87]

I shall turn away from My Signs those who behave arrogantly on the earth in a wrongful manner, and (even) if they see all the Signs they will not believe in them. And if they see the way of righteousness they will not adopt it as the way, but if they see the way of error, they will adopt that way ... [Soorah Al-A'raaf ayah 146]

Al-Kibr necessarily implies Ash-Shirk, and Ash-Shirk is the counterpart of Al-Islaam, it being the sin which Allaah will never forgive.

Verily Allaah forgives not that rivals should be set up in worship with Him, but He forgives whomever He pleases sins other than that, and whoever sets up rivals in worship with Allaah, he has indeed invented a tremendous sin. [Soorah An-Nisaa' ayah 48]

Verily Allaah forgives not that rivals should be set up in worship with Him but He forgives whomever He pleases other than that, and whoever sets up rivals in worship with Allah, indeed he has strayed far away. [Soorah An-Nisaa' ayah 116]

Hence all the prophets were sent with the Deen of al- Islaam, it being the only Deen acceptable to Allaah.

Noah said:

And if you turn away, I have not asked you for a reward; verily, my reward is only with Allaah. And I have been commanded to be of those who submit to Allaah. [Soorah Yoonus ayah 72]

Concerning Ibraheem:

And who disliked the religion of Abraham except one who fools himself? And We had chosen him in this world; and verily, in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous. When his Lord said to him: Submit! He said I submit to the Lord of the Worlds ... Therefore, do not die except that you are Muslims. [Soorah Al-Baqarah ayaat 130-132]

Yoosuf said:

... Take my soul as the one that submits and admit me among the righteous [Soorah Yoosuf ayah 101]

Moosa said:

... O my people, if you would believe in Allaah then put your trust in Him; if you are truely Muslims.Then they said: We do put our trust in Allaah [Soorah Yoonus ayaat 84-85]

The Messenger said, Allaah says, "Al-'Adthamah (majesty) is My loincloth and Al-Kibriyaa (grandeur) is My garment. Thus, I shall punish whoever challenges Me concerning either of them" [Muslim & Abu Daawood]

Majesty and Grandeur are the peculiarities of Lordship, and Grandeur is of a higher level than Majesty. For this reason He put it at the rank of a garment just as He put majesty at the rank of a loincloth.

That is why the motto (Allaahu-Akbar) of Salah, Adhaan, Takbeer of.'Eid. Takbeer is also favoured in high places such as Safaa & Marwah, and when a man ascends or mounts and animal. Also shaitaan runs away when adhaan is called.

And your Lord said: Call upon Me, and I shall respond to your (invocation). Verily those who disdain My woship will surely enter Jahannam in humiliation! [Soorah AI-Ghaafir ayah 60]

Whoever disdains the worship of Allaah surely must worship other than Him, because man is susceptible to mobilisation by his will.

The Messenger said "The most trustworthy of names are Haarith and Hammaam."[Abu Daawood & Nasaa'ee]
