derivative, are the source of all evil and perversion. As it was
the case with millions of people who have lived in the past,
these flaws for which Satan was guilty have also seized
control of the base natures of innumerable number of people
living today, drag them into the same evil ways of Iblis.
An arrogant person, that is, someone who attributes an
independent power to himself, and thus shows an undue
arrogance towards Allah, and turns his back to His verses, is
continually vulnerable to Satan' s wiles. The purpose of this
book is to present all the aspects of arrogance and the
character flaws of a person who is seized by this malady, and
to summon all, upon whom Satan exerts his influence, to
avoid him and to cleanse themselves of this evil.
With these aims in mind, throughout the book, we will
consider the psychological condition of vain people, in
relation to the fault of "arrogance," which is their inherent
flaw.
We hope that this book serves as a strong warning to all
of our readers to shun this evil vice of Iblis' .
