𝗔𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘀 & 𝗜𝗱𝗶𝗼𝗺𝘀 (50):

اللسان سيف إن لم تكن حارسه قطعك The tongue is a sword; if you do not guard it, it will cut you Explanation: - This proverb emphasises the power of speech and the importance of caution when speaking. Just as a sword can harm if mishandled, careless words can lead to regret or harm. Alternative: الكلمة مثل السهم إذا خرجت لا ترجع A word is like an arrow – once released, it does not return. Both proverbs highlight the irreversible nature of spoken words and the need for mindfulness in communication.
