“What has passed has died.”

Let go of the past; dwelling on what is over serves no purpose.

“In its mother's eyes, the monkey looks like a gazelle.”

إيد وحدة ما تصفق.

“One hand alone cannot clap.”

Cooperation is necessary; no one accomplishes great things entirely alone.

“Those whose house is made of glass should not throw stones at people.”

Do not criticize others for faults you share yourself.

دق الحديد وهو حامي.

“Strike the iron while it is hot.”

Act at the right moment, while conditions are favorable, or the chance will be lost.
