Quranic Ayat/Verse

**
(Remember) when We said to the angels, Prostrate yourself before dam. So, they all prostrated, except Ibls (Satan). He said, Shall I prostrate before the one You have created from mud?

(Surah Al-Isra, ayah 61)

This incident is mentioned in a few places in the Quran. Weve already seen it in Surah Al-Araf and now its present in Surah Al-Isra too. Satan commits the sin of arrogance, pride and ego when he believes himself to be better than Adam (peace be upon him) due to the material with which hes made. In Islam, everyone is equal and we are judged on what is in our hearts and not how we look. Battling to control the ego is a daily struggle for many and the reward is often in the struggle itself. Show patience, respect others and understand that everyone is a servant of God. Treat others how you would like to be treated and let your interactions light the way to Paradise.**

Hadith

**Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) was asked about that for which people are admitted into Paradise the most, so he said:
"Taqwa of Allah, and good character." And he was asked about that for which people are admitted into the Fire the most, and he said: " The mouth and the private parts."

(Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2004, Book 27, Hadith 110)

Always be mindful of Allah and know that everything happening all the time is from Him. Use this awareness to steer your life towards good and away from the bad. Emulate the character of the Prophet (SAW) and be strict with your prayer. Control your tongue and dont let it lead you astray while slandering others or gossiping and protect yourself from illicit liaisons and obscenities.**
