"لاَ حَسَدَ إِلَّا في اثْنَتَيْنِ: رَجُلٌ عَلَّمَهُ الله الْقُرآنَ، فَهُوَ يَتْلُوهُ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وآنَاءَ النَّهَارِ، فَسَمِعَهُ جَارٌ له فَقَالَ: لَيتَنِى أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِىَ فُلاَنٌ، فَعَمِلْتُ مِثْلَ مَا

يَعْمَلُ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ الله مَالًا، فَهُوَ يُهْلِكُهُ في الْحَقِّ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: لَيْتَنِى أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتىَ فُلاَنٌ فَعَمِلْتُ مِثْلَ مَا يَعْمَلُ".

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "There is no envy except in two cases: a man whom Allah has given the Quran and he recites it day and night, and a man whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the way of truth." Then a man heard this and said, "Oh, how I wish I had been given the same as he was given so that I could do the same as he does."
