Riyad us Saliheen
وعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما‏:‏ عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال ‏:‏‏‏ لا حسد إلا في اثنتين‏:‏ رجل آتاه الله القرآن، فهو يقوم به آناء الليل وآناء النهار، ورجل آتاه الله مالا، فهو ينفقه آناء الليل وآناء النهارِ‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ (1) ‏.‏"
Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Envy is justified in regard to two types of persons only: a man whom Allah has given knowledge of the Qur'an, and so he recites it during the night and during the day; and a man whom Allah has given wealth and so he spends from it during the night and during the day."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
