Tafsir
Scholars offer complementary perspectives
and from the evil of an envier when he envies’ when he manifests his envy and behaves in accordance with it — such as the mentioned Labīd from among the Jews who were envious of the Prophet s; the mention of these three elements of evil which are already subsumed by the statement ‘of what He has created’ is because of the severity of their evil.

“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) said: ‘There is no envy except in two cases. A man to whom
Allah has given (knowledge of) the Qur’an, so he recites it night
and
day, and a man to whom Allah has given wealth, so he spends it
night
and day.’”

man

proper manner, and a man to whom Allah has given wisdom, and he acts
in accordance with it and teaches it (to others).”
“Envy
consumes good deeds just as fire consumes wood, and charity
extinguishes bad deeds just as water extinguishes fire. Prayer is the

cause
him to melt as salt melts in water.”
