«اِللِّي تْخَافْ مِنُّهْ مَا يْجِيشْ أَحْسَنْ مِنُّهْ»

The proverb cautions against treating fear as an accurate forecast. A situation that appears threatening in advance can unfold differently from the harm a person had imagined, so anxious expectations should not be mistaken for certainty.

It also allows that an unwelcome prospect may have a favorable side or later bring relief. It invites patience before judging an anticipated event wholly bad, while offering hope in uncertainty rather than guaranteeing that every feared outcome will be beneficial.

Used to reassure someone distressed by an approaching change, decision, or outcome. It suggests that the feared development may be less harmful than expected and may reveal an unforeseen positive aspect, without promising a good result.
