The Meaning of Humility and Its Virtue

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. May Allah welcome you. May Allah bless you. This person asks: "No one humbles himself for Allah except that Allah raises him." What is the humility intended in this?

Answer:
Humility is as it appears on the surface; a person does not become arrogant. Humility is the opposite of arrogance. So Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) compensates the one who humbles himself for Him by raising him, by raising him (Glorified and Exalted is He). He raises his status and grants him elevation in rank because he humbled himself for Allah, humbled himself for Allah.
