Sheikh Saleh Al-Fawzan
Sheikh: what?
Questioner: If you are pleased with your deeds, then know that Allah is not pleased with you!
Sheikh: I don’t know what that is? What is the evidence for such a statement? (In contrast) the believer is (supposed to be) pleased.
“Say: "In the Bounty of Allah, and in His Mercy (i.e. Islam and the Quran); - therein let them rejoice."“ (10:58).
In this Ayah, the bounty of Allah refers to Islam, and His mercy refers to the Quran. So, being pleased with Islam and with the Quran is something good. Yes.
