Sunan an-Nasai 2558 (Book 23, Hadith 124) #17169
The Kinds of Jealousy and Pride that Allah Loves and Hates

SUMMARY: Allah loves protective jealousy when there are grounds for suspicion and pride in doing good deeds, but hates protective jealousy without grounds for suspicion and pride in doing wrong.

It was narrated from Ibn Jabir, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah said: "There is a kind of protective Jealousy that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, loves and a kind that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, hates, and a kind of pride that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, loves and a kind that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, hates, As for the protective jealousy that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, loves, it is protective jealousy when there are grounds for suspicion. As for the protective jealousy that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, hates, it is protective jealousy when there are no grounds for suspicion. As for the pride that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, loves, it is when a man feels proud of himself when fighting and when giving charity. And as for the kind of pride that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, hates, it is pride in doing wrong".
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنِ ابْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ مِنَ الْغَيْرَةِ مَا يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَمِنْهَا مَا يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَمِنَ الْخُيَلاَءِ مَا يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَمِنْهَا مَا يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَأَمَّا الْغَيْرَةُ الَّتِي يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَالْغَيْرَةُ فِي الرِّيبَةِ وَأَمَّا الْغَيْرَةُ الَّتِي يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَالْغَيْرَةُ فِي غَيْرِ رِيبَةٍ وَالاِخْتِيَالُ الَّذِي يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ اخْتِيَالُ الرَّجُلِ بِنَفْسِهِ عِنْدَ الْقِتَالِ وَعِنْدَ الصَّدَقَةِ وَالاِخْتِيَالِ الَّذِي يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الْخُيَلاَءُ فِي الْبَاطِلِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the two kinds of jealousy that Allah loves and hates. The kind of protective jealousy that Allah loves is when there are grounds for suspicion, such as if a husband suspects his wife of cheating on him or if a parent suspects their child of lying to them. On the other hand, the kind of protective jealousy that Allah hates is when there is no basis or evidence to support it; this type can lead to unnecessary arguments between people. Similarly, this hadith also explains the two kinds of pride that Allah loves and hates. The kind of pride that Allah loves is when someone feels proud after doing something good like fighting in battle or giving charity; this type encourages people to do more good deeds out of love for God rather than out of arrogance or selfishness. On the other hand, the kind of pride that Allah hates is feeling proud after committing wrongdoings like stealing or lying; this type leads people away from God's path instead encouraging them to do more bad deeds out of arrogance or selfishness.
