- Imam ‘Ali bin Musa (a) exemplified humility. He instructed his followers not to stop eating when he arrived and would wait until they finished eating before addressing them. He also gathered all his servants, irrespective of their status, and treated them equally. - The first sin in human history was Shayṭān's disobedience due to arrogance, refusing to bow to Adam (Qur'an 2:34). Arrogance leads to the ruin of individuals and nations, as seen with powerful rulers throughout history. - In the Qur’an (17:4-8), a people were warned about their mischief and rebellion. Punishments included invasions by Nebuchadnezzar and later, the Romans. This method of dealing with arrogance continues, indicating that justice will eventually prevail. - The Gaza Strip tragedy highlights the arrogance of Israel and the hypocrisy of the US government and its allies. Human rights and international laws are applied selectively, depending on the country involved. - The International Court of Justice ruling ordering Israel to halt its military offensive in Rafah was ignored by Israel. The US supports ICC actions selectively, backing ICC against Russia but condemning ICC for pursuing Israel. A proposed US bill would target ICC officials to stop cases against the US and allies, showcasing extreme arrogance. - Grand Ayatullah Sistani expressed condolences on the tragic death of Hujjatul Islam Raisi and his companions in a helicopter crash, praying for mercy on the departed and patience for the bereaved.
