2001. Jubair bin Muṭ'im narrated from his father who said: "They (meaning the people in general) told me that I was proud, while I rode a donkey, wore a cloak, and I milked the sheep. And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had said to me: 'Whoever does these, then there is no pride (arrogance) in him.'" (Saḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan [Saḥīḥ] Gharīb.
٢٠٠١ - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عِيسَى الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: «يَقُولُونَ لِي: تَكُونُونَ فِيَّ التِّيهِ، وَقَدْ رَكِبْتُ الْحِمَارَ وَلَبِسْتُ الشَّمْلَةَ، وَقَدْ حَلَبْتُ الشَّاةَ، وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا فَلَيْسَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْكِبْرِ شَيْءٌ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ.

The Ḥadīth informs us that we can recognize arrogance in a man through his conduct and behaviour. Everything about him — his dress, his gait, and his manners — is unlike the humble and modest persons walking on the face of the earth.
