Messenger of Allah S.A.W.S. said:
"When one of you looks at one who stands at a higher level than you in regard to wealth and physical structure he should also see one who stands at a lower level than you in regard to these things (in which he stands) at a higher level (as compared to him)."
[Sahih Muslim]
"Look at those who stand at a lower level than you but don't look at those who stand at a higher level than you, for this would make the favours (conferred upon you by Allah) insignificant (in your eyes)."
[Sahih Muslim]
Commentary: We are encouraged to look at those lower than us in wealth and appearance (so long as it does not instill any pride in the heart), so that we feel contented and thankful to Allah for His favors . However, in matters of Faith and Taqwah, a man must look at those higher than him, in order to take inspiration from them and reach a higher level of imaan.
