Jealousy, it can get ugly. SubhanAllah it's pretty sad but we've all either been the victim of someones jealous ways or ourselves have been jealous. It's not hard not to get jealous, but to stop being jealous of others is self-control + understanding your own blessings. The best way to conquer this is by making dua for that person & asking Allah to increase them + you in whatever good you wish to see in yourself as you see in them. Sisters, I can't talk about brothers so wallahu alam..but SISTERS this is something that effects us daily & how many of us actually stop & think about it? + ask eachother for help..no kidding it's not something to brush under the carpet; we have to be able to love eachother & respect eachother & help one another. Jealousy makes a person look ugly & sooner then later will end friendships & create hatred, Authobillah! not many understand this is serious; but it could start with a snobby look-turned into a remark- turned into backbiting-turned into EVIL EYE. I would never want to cause anyone with that, AUTHOBILLAH; yet so many just enjoin in this jealousy & not care about fixing themselves, ourselves. "Want for yourself that which you want for your brother. . ." This is basic, we just have to increase in kindness for one another regardless if your jealous of material or Allah given things ( ex..pretty face features, nice skin etc). Just FEAR ALLAH; that what's I always tell myself & say Ma'sha'Allah because this is something Allah has willed for that person. & it also helps to look to those below you so that you can increase in gratefulness to Allah.
May Allah protect us from this evil act + help us to change our ways& increase us in beautiful characteristics, Allahumma Ameen!
