	background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?><svg aria-hidden='true' focusable='false' data-prefix='fas' data-icon='check-circle' class='svg-inline--fa fa-check-circle fa-w-16' role='img' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 512 512'><path fill='%2315aabf' d='M504 256c0 136.967-111.033 248-248 248S8 392.967 8 256 119.033 8 256 8s248 111.033 248 248zM227.314 387.314l184-184c6.248-6.248 6.248-16.379 0-22.627l-22.627-22.627c-6.248-6.249-16.379-6.249-22.628 0L216 308.118l-70.059-70.059c-6.248-6.248-16.379-6.248-22.628 0l-22.627 22.627c-6.248 6.248-6.248 16.379 0 22.627l104 104c6.249 6.249 16.379 6.249 22.628.001z'></path></svg>");
}

Replace brxe-list with the class of your ul element.

Here’s how you can generate the value of background-image property:

Copy your SVG’s HTML (open the .svg file in a code/text editor to view the HTML) and paste it in the URL-encoder for SVG page in the “Insert SVG” field.

Click “Copy” of the “Ready for CSS:” field.

Paste it in the above code replacing:

background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?><svg aria-hidden='true' focusable='false' data-prefix='fas' data-icon='check-circle' class='svg-inline--fa fa-check-circle fa-w-16' role='img' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 512 512'><path fill='%2315aabf' d='M504 256c0 136.967-111.033 248-248 248S8 392.967 8 256 119.033 8 256 8s248 111.033 248 248zM227.314 387.314l184-184c6.248-6.248 6.248-16.379 0-22.627l-22.627-22.627c-6.248-6.249-16.379-6.249-22.628 0L216 308.118l-70.059-70.059c-6.248-6.248-16.379-6.248-22.628 0l-22.627 22.627c-6.248 6.248-6.248 16.379 0 22.627l104 104c6.249 6.249 16.379 6.249 22.628.001z'></path></svg>")
