It is not permissible for a created being such as man to praise himself. The Holy Quran says: فلا تزکو ا انفسکم ھو اعلم بمن اتقّیٰ. "Do not claim to be pure; He knows best who is really God-fearing." (53:32) It means that a man can be praised only if he fears Allah, but Allah alone knows to what degree a particular person possesses this quality, known as Taqwa.
