Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Beware of envy because envy consumes (destroys) the virtues just as the fire consumes the firewood," or he said "grass."[Abu Dawud].
Commentary:
Envy is one of the major sins which are bound to destroy virtues as fast as the fire burns the wood and dry grass to ashes.
