«اِلدُّنْيَا مْرَايَهْ وَرِّيهَا تْوَرِّيكْ»

Life, the world and one's dealings in it, is pictured as a mirror that gives back an image of whatever stands before it. What a person puts into the world through their own actions is what they will find coming back to them, so the good or harm one meets largely reflects the good or harm one has done.

The saying works as encouragement to do good, since good conduct is the way to see good reflected back. Applied the other way, it can explain why someone whose actions were harmful now sees the same kind of treatment mirrored back at them, as a likeness of their own conduct.

Use it when advising someone that kindness and honest dealing bring similar treatment in return, or when pointing out that a person's present difficulties mirror their own earlier conduct. It suits discussions of behavior and its consequences in everyday relationships.
