Amr ibn Shu'ayb, from his father, from his grandfather (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Two qualities, whoever has them, Allah records him as grateful and patient: one who looks in his religion to someone above him and follows his example, and one who looks in his worldly affairs to someone below him and praises Allah for favoring him over them. Allah records him as grateful and patient. But whoever looks in his religion to someone below him and in his worldly affairs to someone above him, regretting what he missed, Allah does not record him as grateful nor patient."
