Is Ibn al-Qayyim's definition of patience, "that patience is restraining the self from distress, the tongue from complaining, and the limbs from slapping the cheeks and tearing the garments," correct?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The student: Restraining the self from distress, the tongue from complaining, and the limbs from slapping the cheeks and tearing the garments.

The Shaykh : It is correct. We said that the dislike of Allah's ruling is more general than what he (may Allah have mercy on him) said.
