The Quran describes success on the Day of Judgment in terms of coming to Allah with a 'Sound Heart' (Qalb Saleem). A clean heart is free from arrogance, hatred, and spiritual diseases.
يَوْمَ لَا يَنْفَعُ مَالٌ وَلَا بَنُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَتَى اللَّهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
Yawma la yanfa-u malun wa la banun, illa man atallaha biqalbin saleem.
The Day when neither wealth nor children will benefit, except one who comes to Allah with a sound heart.
