Du'a (Supplication) . Takabbur (Arrogance)

How should I make Dua to get closer to Allah and seek what is best for me without being arrogant or demanding? What really does being happy with decree of Allah (swt) mean?

Sincere believers seek from Allah (SWT) to Grant them the best for them according to He Knows, not what they think. Supplications Du'a narrated from the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) are full of these submissions. We admit that we have no knowledge in front of what Allah Knows about us and our future, that is why, we need to totally submit to His Will and seek from Him to a grant us what He Knows the best for us in this life and hereafter.

Wassalam.

Thank you for your question. One of the most important strategies to combat most vices is to be aware of instances when you feel or act in an arrogant manner and to stop yourself from doing those things and to talk yourself out of your feelings of arrogance. It is then to pay closer attention to your attitudes and to intentionally increase your humbleness.

The path of self purification is not such that a person can only work on one issue without regard to other aspects. So the general path of purification decreases arrogance as a person becomes more illuminated by the light of faith.

May you always be successful
