Jealousy is a disease of the heart. It is, perhaps, one of the oldest problems of human beings.
Causes of Jealousy

One has animosity for a person or group and does not want to see anything good happen to that person or group.
:Ambition
It hurts a person to see someone else ahead or above him/her.
: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.
: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.?'
: Fear
Fear that if another person would have such and such thing, then he/she may not have it
: Desire for power and prestige
Sometimes a person becomes jealous because he/she want to make one great by putting others down
: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
