مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ
Musnad of Abdullah bin Umar
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5417 — the Prophet ﷺ said: Envy (that is, emulation)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : لَا حَسَدَ إِلَّا فِي اثْنَتَيْنِ : رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللهُ الْقُرْآنَ ، فَهُوَ يَقُومُ بِهِ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وَآنَاءَ النَّهَارِ ، وَرَجُلٍ آتَاهُ اللهُ مَالًا ، فَهُوَ يُنْفِقُهُ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وَآنَاءَ النَّهَارِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Envy (that is, emulation) is permissible only in two cases: a man to whom Allah Almighty has granted the blessing of the Noble Qur'an, and he recites it and stands with it in prayer during the hours of the night and the day; and a man whom Allah Almighty has blessed with wealth, and he spends it in the way of Allah during all the hours of the night and the day."
