Be Quranic - 58 : The First Sin in the History of Creations
from Grounded · host Qaswa House
On day 58 of Be Quranic, as Ramadan begins, we reflect on the singular mention of Ramadan in the Quran, directly linked to the revelation of the Quran as a guide and criterion for mankind. This session continues from ayah 32 of Surah al-Baqarah, moving to ayat 34, which depicts Allah's command for angels to prostrate to Adam, highlighting obedience and the sin of arrogance exemplified by Iblis's refusal due to pride, as he was of the jinn, not an angel. The lesson stresses the importance of humility, warning against the spiritual disease of arrogance—defined by denying truth and belittling others—which can prevent one from entering Jannah. Practical advice from Imam al-Ghazali encourages respect for all, regardless of their age or knowledge, as a means to guard against arrogance, urging reflection on our thoughts and actions to cultivate humility.
