Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 25394a
"لاَ تَنَافُسَ بَيْنَكُم إلاَّ في اثْنَتَين: رَجُلٌ أَعْطَاهُ الله قُرآنًا فَهُوَ يَقُومُ بِهِ آنَاءَ اللَّيلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَيَتَّبعُ مَا فِيهِ، فَيقُولُ رَجُلٌ: لَوْ أَعطَانِى الله مَا أَعطَى فلَانًا فَأَقُومَ بِهِ كَمَا يَقُومُ بِهِ، وَرَجُلٌ أَعْطَاهُ الله مَالًا فَهُوَ يُنْفِقُ وَيَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ فَيَقُولُ رَجُلٌ: لَوْ أَنَّ الله أَعْطَانِى مِنَ المَالِ كَمَا أَعْطَى فُلَانًا فَأَتَصَدَّقَ بِهِ".

"There should be no envy except in two cases: a man whom Allah has given the Quran, so he stands with it through the hours of the night and the day, and follows what is in it, and a man says, 'If only Allah had given me what He gave to so-and-so, I would do as he does.' And a man whom Allah has given wealth, so he spends from it and gives charity, and a man says, 'If only Allah had given me wealth as He gave to so-and-so, I would give charity with it.'"
