«اِللِّي يِصَّبَّحْ بُهْ يِبِيعْ أَوْلَادُهْ»

This saying describes someone whom others cast as deeply unlucky. Seeing that person at the beginning of the day is portrayed as bringing such misfortune that the observer is driven into total loss; it is an insulting attribution, not a factual judgment about a person.

The consequence is intentionally extravagant: selling one’s children figuratively represents ruin beyond ordinary hardship. The expression does not predict actual events or endorse the stereotype that any person can bring misfortune, but emphatically voices a claim of disastrous ill luck.

It is used, with deliberate exaggeration, to characterize someone as so ill-omened that meeting them in the morning is said to lead to complete financial ruin. Because it casts a person as a bringer of misfortune, it can be insulting and is best handled cautiously.
