Lectures broadcasted at the Islamic Center of Palm Beach during Ramadan 1437 (2016) on the topic of Patience and Gratitude from a treatise written by the great scholar, Imam Ibnu Qayyim al-Jawziyyah.
Excerpt from the translation:
"The present text is an abridged translation of Ibn al-Qayyim’s famous work, ‘Uddat as-Sâbirîn wa Dhâkhirat ash-Shâkirîn (literally, The Equipment of the Patient and the Investment of the Grateful). This work deals with the closely-related topics of patience and gratitude. Although often translated as “patience”, the Arabic word sabr has a broader and deeper meaning than the English. Depending on the context, it may mean fortitude, patience, equanimity, forbearance, patient endurance, etc. Shukr may be translated as “gratitude” or "thankfulness". As is shown in the book, patience and gratitude are two sides of the same coin, closely-related attitudes which the Muslim should seek to foster in every aspect of his or her life."

04 Patience & Gratitude (Part 4) by Ibnu Qayyim
By Abu Muhammad al-Maghribi
Continuation of readings from Chapter 2 of Imam Ibnu Qayyim's Patience & Gratitude. The talk deals with patience upon worshipping Allaah, patience in staying away from what is forbidden, and patience during trials and adversity.
Excerpt:
"Patience in worshipping Allâh and carrying out His instructions means that you perform the prescribed acts of worship regularly and do so sincerely and with knowledge. Worship that is not performed regularly is of no value. Even if worship is performed regularly, there are two dangers. Firstly, we risk losing our sincerity, if the motive for performing prayers is not to please Allâh and draw closer to Him. So to protect our worship we must make sure that we are sincere. Secondly, we must be sure never to deviate from the way of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam), so we have to ensure that our worship is done according to the Sunnah."

2. Physical patience without choice, such as patiently bearing illness, beatings and extremes of heat and cold.
