مسند احمد

Musnad Ahmed
Marfoo', saheeh because of corroborating evidence, this is a da'eef isnad because it is mursal]
It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ood (رضي الله عنه) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "No one will enter the Fire who has in his heart faith the weight of a grain, and no one will enter Paradise who has in his heart pride the weight of a grain." A man said: O Messenger of Allah, I like my garment to be clean, my hair to be well groomed and my shoelaces to be in good condition - and he mentioned some other things, until he mentioned the handle of his whip - is that pride, O Messenger of Allah? He said: "No, that is beauty. Allah is beautiful and loves beauty. Rather pride is rejecting the truth and looking down on people."
