من قال: الحسد في قراءة القرآن
Who Says Envy in Qur'an Recitation is Permissible
Hadith 32287
٣٢٢٨٧ - حدثنا سفيان بن عيينة عن الزهري عن سالم عن أبيه عن النبي ﷺ قال: "لا حسد إلا في اثنتين: رجل أتاه اللَّه مالًا، فهو ينفقه آناء الليل وآناء النهار، ورجل علمه اللَّه القرآن فهو يقوم به آناء الليل وآناء النهار" (١).
Hazrat Abdullah narrates that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Envy is not permissible except in two cases: one is the person whom Allah has given wealth, so he spends it morning and evening in the way of Allah's pleasure; and the other is the person whom Allah has taught the Qur'an, so he recites it morning and evening.
Hadith 32288
٣٢٢٨٨ - حدثنا يحيى بن آدم قال: حدثنا يزيد بن عبد العزيز عن الأعمش عن أبي صالح عن أبي سعيد قال: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "لا حسد إلا في اثنتين: رجل أتاه اللَّه القرآن فهو يتلوه آناء الليل وآناء النهار، فيقول الرجل: لو آتاني اللَّه مثل ما أتى (فلانًا) (١) فعلت مثل ما يفعل، ورجل أتاه اللَّه مالًا فهو ينفقه في حقه فيقول الرجل: لو آتاني اللَّه مثل ما أتى (فلانًا) (٢) فعلت مثل ما يفعل" (٣).
Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Envy is not permissible except in two persons: one is the person whom Allah has granted the ability to recite the Qur'an, so he recites it day and night. Then another person says: If Allah had granted me the ability to recite the Qur'an as He has granted so-and-so, I would have done as he does in reciting. And the second is the person whom Allah has given wealth, so he spends it in the right way, then another person says: If Allah had given me wealth as He has given so-and-so, I would have done as he does in spending.
