What is the ruling on the saying: "Whoever finds Allah, what has he lost? And whoever loses Allah, what has he found?"
There is no harm in the saying "Whoever pleases Allah, Allah will make people pleased with him," even though it is not a but a common saying. It may mean that whoever attains Allah's pleasure has attained everything, because if Allah is pleased with His servant, He will make people pleased with him and safeguard him from their harm. It has been reported in the hadith: "Whoever seeks Allah's pleasure at the expense of people's displeasure, Allah will be pleased with him and make people pleased with him. And whoever seeks people's pleasure at the expense of Allah's displeasure, Allah will be displeased with him and make people displeased with him." It is preferable to propagate verses and hadiths that encourage good deeds.
