A man who was beautiful came to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Messenger of Allah, I am a man who likes beauty, and I have been given some of it, as you see. And I do not like that anyone excels me (in respect of beauty). Perhaps he said: "even to the extent of thong of my sandal (shirak na'li)", or he he said: "to the extent of strap of my sandal (shis'i na'li)". Is it pride? He replied: No, pride is disdaining what is true and despising people.

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَكَانَ رَجُلاً جَمِيلاً فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ حُبِّبَ إِلَىَّ الْجَمَالُ وَأُعْطِيتُ مِنْهُ مَا تَرَى حَتَّى مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَفُوقَنِي أَحَدٌ إِمَّا قَالَ بِشِرَاكِ نَعْلِي وَإِمَّا قَالَ بِشِسْعِ نَعْلِي أَفَمِنَ الْكِبْرِ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لاَ وَلَكِنَّ الْكِبْرَ مَنْ بَطَرَ الْحَقَّ وَغَمَطَ النَّاسَ
