Taqwa is that you do not regard yourself better than anyone else-Ibn ‘Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhuma)

Could you provide the reference for this narration?

Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) said: “Taqwa is that you do not regard yourself better than anyone else”

Answer

Imam Baghawi (rahimahullah) has cited this statement of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) without a chain.

(Tafsir Baghawi, Surah Al Baqarah, Verse: 3, vol. 1 pg. 13)

I have not come across this in any Primary source.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
