«جِلْدْ مَا هُوشْ جِلْدَكْ جُرُّهْ عَلَى الشُّوكْ»

The saying captures the attitude of someone who readily causes suffering to others because none of that suffering ever reaches them. It points to how bold and careless people become once somebody else is the one bearing the consequences of what they do.

It is not advice to hurt anyone, and reading it as sincere encouragement reverses its meaning. Instead, it speaks in the voice of the indifferent person, putting their unspoken reasoning into words so that listeners can recognize that reasoning and judge it.

Say it critically about someone who readily causes others pain or hardship because they themselves feel none of it. It works as a mocking echo of that person's outlook, exposing their indifference, never as genuine encouragement to act that way.
