«اِللِّي فِيهَا يْكَفِّيهَا»

The saying commends being content with modest means. It suggests that a person whose needs are covered should not feel compelled to seek more merely for the sake of having more. Its feminine wording may refer to a woman or to a grammatically feminine noun, depending on context.

It can also express acceptance of a livelihood that is limited but sufficient. The emphasis is not on abundance, but on having enough to manage without excessive want or complaint.

Used approvingly of someone who accepts a sufficient, modest standard of living. It may encourage contentment or discourage demands for more when basic needs are already met; the feminine form need not mean that the referent is necessarily a woman.
