OBSTINACY (INÂD) and ARROGANCE (MUKABARA)

Obstinacy (inâd) and “mukâbara” is one’s rejection of the truth when one hears it. Abû Jahl and Abû Tâlib were obstinate not to accept the prophethood of Rasûlullah ‘sall-Allâhu ’alaihi wa sal-lam’. They denied it. Obstinacy (inâd) is caused by hypocrisy, hatred (hiqd), jealousy, or tama’ Rasûlullah ‘sallAllâhu ’alaihi wa sal-lam’ said, “The person whom Allâhu ta’âlâ loathes most is the one who is too obstinate to admit the truth.” It is stated in another hadîth-i-sherîf “A Believer (Mu’min) will be dignified and soft.” A dignified person will show the easy way in worldly affairs. He will be like a hard rock regarding affairs pertaining to religion. A mountain may wear out with time but a Believer’s faith will never wear out.
