Which is better, patience or gratitude?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Which is better, patience or gratitude?

Answer:
They are equal. The scholars differed on which is better: the poor person who is patient or the rich person who is grateful? Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) and Ibn al-Qayyim say that the better of the two is the one who is more mindful of Allah.
