What is the difference in punishment between arrogance and vanity?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, why did we distinguish between the causes of discord and vanity, because it is among the major sins, and that discord without vanity is forbidden despite the fact that there is a punishment in the Hereafter?
The Shaykh : Who told you to make this distinction?
The questioner : Because we assumed so.
The Shaykh : Yes, no, all of it is among the major sins, but the punishment for arrogance is greater, because in it Allah does not look at him, nor does He speak to him,[Ali 'Imran 3:77], whereas in this one there is a warning, or a reference to a warning, in His saying "wail," yes, whatever is below his ankles is in the Fire, yes.
The Shaykh : Who told you to make this distinction?
The questioner : Because we assumed so.
The Shaykh : Yes, no, all of it is among the major sins, but the punishment for arrogance is greater, because in it Allah does not look at him, nor does He speak to him,
nor will He purify them; and they will have a painful punishment.
وَلَا يُزَكِّيهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
