How does a servant reconcile doing good deeds with not feeling God's pleasure, and despite his repentance, he returns to watching pornographic channels when lust intensifies? So how can his repentance be sincere enough to save him from Hellfire, especially since he intends to perform Umrah soon?
"Whoever Allah has guided to His obedience, uprightness, and good deeds should praise Allah and ask Him for more, for this is a great blessing and an indication of Allah's pleasure with him. Therefore, he should not pay attention to people and beware of showing off. As for watching pornographic scenes and dirty films, it is not permissible. He must hasten to sincere repentance, distance himself from places where these things are watched, avoid bad companions, and instead associate with righteous people and attend gatherings of knowledge."
