Hadith 33:1422

Yazid ibn Harun narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salamah informed us, from Thabit al-Bunani, from Mutarrif, from Ka’b, who said: There is no servant except that there is wisdom in his head. If he humbles himself, Allah raises him; and if he acts arrogantly, Allah lowers him.

حدثنا يزيد بن هارون قال أخبرنا حماد بن سلمة عن ثابت البناني عن مطرف عن كعب قال ما من عبد إلا في رأسه حكمة فإن تواضع رفعه الله وإن تكبر وضعه الله
