Envy!
You know how you don’t praise certain people and anything remotely linked to them because to them the bottom line for everything that is “wrong” and goes “wrong” is “envy”!
The type that obsessively thinks about “enviousness”, not a thorn in their hands, a paper cut, a torn dress, a failed exam, an accident, can be logically explained.
I’m not saying “envy” doesn’t exist, it does, it is mentioned in the Quran and A7adeeth, but does it have to be the first conclusion to all the wrongs?
Failed exam … maybe you didn’t study well, that’s one explanation …
Car accident … reckless driving or bad luck!
Torn dress … perhaps it was too long!
Another thing, say a person who’s always concerned about others envying them and they wear a new cool sunglasses, people most likely are going to comment and praise thinking perhaps it is a nice thing to say and it’ll make that person happy, but all that person is thinking about is how the evil force will materialize and suddenly while they are deeply engrossed in their thoughts they bump into a wall and break their precious sunglasses … AHA, I knew it!!!
Here is a thought, when you continuously think about something, it’ll happen. Your being will unconsciously carry it out. OH it’s a new car, people saw it, I’m going to have an accident, I’m going to have an accident, I’m going to have an accident, eventually you will!!!
Or even believe that they are envied over the most trivial and ridiculous un-enviable possessions!
Some will go as far as negating the “masha’Allah, Allah yebarik” that is usually accompanied with praising and accusing the individual of insincere wishes!
“الحسد موجود” and I think we all know someone who had to deal with its aftermath.
Our religion provided remedies to envy, for example, by citing Quran or dooá.
It is easier said than done or achieved … “القناعه” …
If everyone was content they won’t envy others and moreover won’t think others are envying them because everyone is happily content with what GOD gave them
