وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا رِشْدِينُ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ:
« خَصْلَتَانِ مَنْ كَانَتَا فِيهِ كَتَبَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى شَاكِرًا صَابِرًا: مَنْ نَظَرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ فَوْقَهُ فِي دِينِهِ، فَاقْتَدَى بِهِ، وَمَنْ نَظَرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ دُونَهُ فِي دُنْيَاهُ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ تَعَالَى عَلَى مَا فَضَّلَهُ بِهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَخَصْلَتَانِ مَنْ كَانَتَا فِيهِ لَمْ يَكْتُبْهُ اللهُ صَابِرًا، وَلَمْ يَكْتُبْهُ شَاكِرًا: مَنْ نَظَرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ فَوْقَهُ فِي دِينِهِ، فَلَمْ يَقْتَدِ بِهِ، وَنَظَرَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ فَوْقَهُ فِي دُنْيَاهُ، فَأَسِفَ عَلَيْهِ

✧ “Two traits, whoever has them, God, Exalted is He, records him as thankful and patient: one who looks at someone above him in religion and follows him, and one who looks at someone below him in worldly matters and praises God, Exalted is He, for the favor He has bestowed upon him over that person. And two traits, whoever has them, God does not record him as patient, nor record him as thankful: one who looks at someone above him in religion and does not follow him, and looks at someone above him in worldly matters and grieves over it.”
