Allah is Graceful and He loves Grace

It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud (RadhiAllahu 'anhu):

He who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of pride shall not enter Paradise.

A person (amongst his hearers) said: Verily a person loves that his dress should be fine, and his shoes should be fine.
