Conceit the most evil trait
1986 8 August 6 Conceit: the most evil trait (69) The Prophet mentioned three saving graces and three destructive traits. The three saving graces, he said, were “fear of God in public and in private; speaking the truth, at times of both calm and anger; and moderation, whether one is affluent or poor,” And the destructive traits he mentioned were following one’s desires, miserliness and conceit. “And the last one, that is the worst of all,” he said.
(Baihaqi)
