Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنِ ابْنِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ مِنْ الْغَيْرَةِ مَا يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ وَمِنْهَا مَا يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ وَإِنَّ مِنْ الْخُيَلَاءِ مَا يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ وَمِنْهَا مَا يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ وَأَمَّا الْغَيْرَةُ الَّتِي يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ فَالْغَيْرَةُ الَّتِي فِي الرِّيبَةِ وَأَمَّا الْغَيْرَةُ الَّتِي يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ فَالْغَيْرَةُ فِي غَيْرِ الرِّيبَةِ وَأَمَّا الْخُيَلَاءُ الَّتِي يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ فَاخْتِيَالُ الرَّجُلِ بِنَفْسِهِ عِنْدَ الْقِتَالِ وَاخْتِيَالُهُ عِنْدَ الصَّدَقَةِ وَالْخُيَلَاءُ الَّتِي يُبْغِضُ اللَّهُ فَاخْتِيَالُ الرَّجُلِ فِي الْفَخْرِ وَالْبَغْيِ.
English Translation
Affan told us: Aban told us: Yahya ibn Abi Kathir told us, from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn al-Harith, from Ibn Jabir ibn Atik, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is a kind of jealousy that Allah loves and a kind that Allah hates, and there is a kind of pride that Allah loves and a kind that Allah hates. As for the jealousy that Allah loves, it is the jealousy that is in a matter of suspicion; as for the jealousy that Allah hates, it is jealousy without suspicion. As for the pride that Allah loves, it is a man's display of pride for himself in battle and his display of pride at the time of charity; and the pride that Allah hates is a man's display of pride in boasting and wrongdoing."
