Chapter on encouragement to righteous wealth for the righteous man
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 9333 — on encouragement to righteous wealth
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَا حَسَدَ إِلَّا فِي اثْنَيْنِ رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَسَلَّطَهُ عَلَى هَلَكَتِهِ فِي الْحَقِّ وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ حِكْمَةً فَهُوَ يَقْضِي بِهَا وَيُعَلِّمُهَا النَّاسَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no envy except in two cases: one is the person whom Allah Almighty has given wealth and then granted him the ability to spend it in the right way, and the other is the person whom Allah Almighty has endowed with wisdom and understanding, so he judges by it and teaches it to the people.
