«اِللِّي شَايِلْ قِرْبَهْ تِنِز عَلِيهْ»

A person who takes on responsibility for a matter must expect to bear some of its inconvenience, risk, or unpleasant consequences. The burden does not remain entirely separate from the one who carries it.

The image is one of slow seepage rather than a sudden flood. The cost arrives as small, steady leakage that lands on whoever holds the load, not on those standing nearby. So the saying explains why the person doing the work, rather than the onlookers, ends up absorbing the mess.

Use it when someone entrusted with a task encounters the spillover from it, especially after assuming a duty, managing a problem, or carrying another person's burden. It may be said as practical acceptance of responsibility or as a pointed reminder that duties have consequences.
