Tafsir of Surah Aal-i-Imraan 3:188
﴿لَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ يَفْرَحُونَ بِمَا أَتَوا وَّيُحِبُّونَ أَن يُحْمَدُوا بِمَا لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا فَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّهُم بِمَفَازَةٍ مِّنَ الْعَذَابِ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ﴾
Translation of the meaning
And never think that those who rejoice in what they have perpetrated and like to be praised for what they did not do - never think them [to be] in safety from the punishment, and for them is a painful punishment.

يفرحون بما أتوا من البدعة والضلالة والشرك، ويحبون أن يحمدوا باتباع السنة والإخلاص.«مدارج السالكين بين منازل إياك نعبد وإياك نستعين» 1/105
