«اِلنِّعْمَه تْقِيلَهْ»

The saying treats sudden prosperity—wealth, comfort, or good fortune generally, not only religious grace—as a weight that not everyone has the strength to carry. A person who has long lived in want and then comes into comfort may lose balance under it, turning boastful, careless, or ungrateful instead of handling the new good fortune with steadiness.

Its thrust is a judgment on character, not a claim that prosperity itself is bad. The point is that abundance tests people, and those unused to it often fail that test, revealing arrogance or excess that their earlier hardship had kept hidden. The remark is usually critical and slightly mocking.

Use it as a pointed remark about someone whose newly improved circumstances have made them haughty, wasteful, or ungracious. It carries disapproval, so it suits gossip, mild rebuke, or rueful comment rather than polite address to the person concerned.
