What are the levels of patience? Is it sufficient with the tongue?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does patience have levels, or is it a single level?

Answer:
It is specified as three levels: patience in the face of calamities with the heart, the tongue, and the limbs all together. Three:
With the heart, one does not become despondent or complain.
With the tongue, one does not speak what is not appropriate, such as wailing, cursing, or bad speech.
With the limbs, one does not scratch the face, tear the clothes, slap the cheek, throw dust on oneself, or do similar things.
Q: What about one who gives thanks with his tongue but contradicts that with his limbs?
A: He has only the patience he has.
