The Prophet, said, “I entered Paradise and saw a palace and asked whose palace is this? They (the
Angels) said, “This palace belongs to ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab.’ I intended to enter it, and nothing
stopped me except my knowledge about your sense of Ghira (self-respect (O Umar).” ‘Umar said, “O

of my Ghira (self-respect) being offended by you?”
