Ibnul-Jawzi said:
“It is not proper that you should desire a punishment for
the one who envies you beyond that (punishment) which he is already in. For
indeed he is within a terrible perpetual affair. He will not be pleased until
your blessing is removed and the more it (your blessing) increases the more his
punishment increases; thus he has no life. The people of Paradise do not have a
goodly life until envy and rancor is removed from their hearts. If it were not
removed they would envy one another and their lives would be miserable.
