Riyad us Saliheen
وعن ابن مسعود رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ ‏‏لا حسد إلا فى اثنتين‏:‏ رجل آتاه الله مالاً، فسلطه على هلكته فى الحق، ورجل آتاه الله حكمة، فهو يقضي بها ويعلمها‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏‏
Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Envy is permitted only in two cases: A man whom Allah gives wealth, and he disposes of it rightfully, and a man to whom Allah gives knowledge which he applies and teaches it."

[Al- Bukhari and Muslim].
