حدثنا عثمان بن أبي شيبة، حدثنا جرير، عن الأعمش، عن أبي صالح، عن أبي هريرة، قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لا تحاسد إلا في اثنتين رجل آتاه الله القرآن، فهو يتلوه آناء الليل والنهار يقول لو أوتيت مثل ما أوتي هذا لفعلت كما يفعل، ورجل آتاه الله مالا ينفقه في حقه فيقول لو أوتيت مثل ما أوتي لفعلت كما يفعل ‏"‏‏.‏
 Narrated Abu Huraira:                     Allah's Apostle said, "Not to wish to be the like except of two men. A man whom Allah has given the (knowledge of the) Qur'an and he recites it during the hours of night and day and the one who wishes says: If I were given the same as this (man) has been given, I would do what he does, and a man whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the just and right way, in which case the one who wishes says, 'If I were given the same as he has been given, I would do what he does.' " (See Hadith No. 543 and 544, Vol 6)
