envy

Envy only two

لَا حَسَدَ إِلَّا فِي اثْنَتَيْنِ: رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَسَلَّطَهُ عَلَى هَلَكَتِهِ فِي الْحَقِّ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ الْحِكْمَةَ فَهُوَ يَقْضِي بِهَا وَيُعَلِّمُهَا

La hasada illa fi-thnatayn: rajulun ataha-llahu malan fa-sallatahu 'ala halakatihi fi-l-haqq, wa rajulun ataha-llahu-l-hikmata fa-huwa yaqdi biha wa yu'allimuha.

"There is no envy except of two: a man Allah gave wealth and he spends it rightly, and a man Allah gave wisdom and he judges by it and teaches it."

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Mas'ud. Sahih al-Bukhari 73, Sahih Muslim 816

A short reflection

The only jealousies the Prophet ﷺ permitted point at generosity and at teaching. If you have to envy, envy those.
