The Holy Quran 11:10 — Surah Hud

Arabic text

وَلَئِنْ أَذَقْنَـٰهُ نَعْمَآءَ بَعْدَ ضَرَّآءَ مَسَّتْهُ لَيَقُولَنَّ ذَهَبَ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتُ عَنِّىٓ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَفَرِحٌ فَخُورٌ

Translation

(On the contrary) If We allow him to taste any bounty after hardship had afflicted him, he will certainly say, “All difficulties have left me!" (Instead of being grateful to Allaah and fulfilling Allaah's commands,) He then becomes boastful and arrogant (thinking that the bounty was earned through his own resourcefulness and effort).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

ولئن بسطنا للإنسان في دنياه ووسَّعنا عليه في رزقه بعد ضيق من العيش، ليقولَنَّ عند ذلك: ذهب الضيق عني وزالت الشدائد، إنه لبَطِر بالنعم، مبالغ في الفخر والتعالي على الناس.
