*Jealousy*
Jealousy is a disease of the heart. It is, perhaps, one of the oldest
problems of human beings.
*Causes of Jealousy*
* *
1-*Enmity:* One has animosity for a person or group and does not want to see
anything good happen to that person or group.
2-*Ambition:** *It hurts a person to see someone else ahead or above
him/her.
3-*Pride and Arrogance**:* When a person is self conceited and arrogant,
he/she feels very jealous to see anyone else going ahead or doing better.
4-*Astonishment:* Some time a person feels astonished that another person
could do better than him/her. He/she feels surprised: 'How come that person
became so rich, so successful, so popular, etc.?'
5-*Fear**:* Fear that if another person would have such and such thing, then
he/she may not have it.
6-*Desire for power and prestige:* Sometimes a person becomes jealous
because he/she want to make one great by putting others down.
7-*Evil nature and avarice of the heart:* Some people just do not like to
see others happy. They want to see the whole world in misery and difficulty
except their own selves.
Normally jealousy occurs among people who know each other. It happens among
siblings, among family members, people of the same profession and age.
*"Do not be jealous of each other, do not boycott each other, do not hate
each other, do not contrive against each other. Be all of you brothers to
each other.*
