“Or do they envy people for what Allah has given them of His bounty?” (Al-Nisa, 4: 54)
The Prophet (saw) also warns against the harms of being jealous:
“Avoid jealousy…for jealousy devours the good like a fire devours wood.” (Abu Dawud, Adab, 44)

“And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul - it is those who will be the successful.” (Al-Hashr, 59: 8)
