1a] Is feeling proud of one’sreligion a kind of blameworthy pride?

1a]
that is blameworthy.
But feeling proud becauseof doing acts of obedienceand worship means feeling happy that one has been enabled to do that and feeling proud of belonging to people who do that, and praising Allahfor saving him from shirk and its people, and from sin and its path.
As for looking down on the slaves of Allah and feeling that one is above them because of acts of obedience that one has done, this is the worst type of pride and arrogance, and the one who is like this is on the brink of disaster and thereis a danger that his deeds will be thrown back at him.
And Allah knows best.
