«اِلسَّعْدْ لَمَّا يِئْتي مَا يْحِبِّشْ مِسَانْدَهْ»

Good fortune that is meant for a person reaches them by itself. When providence has decided to favor someone, that blessing needs no helper, sponsor, or outside effort to push it along; it simply arrives at the appointed time.

The proverb downplays human assistance and scheming in matters of fortune, treating good luck as a blessing granted from above rather than blind chance. It suggests that chasing favors adds little when success is destined, though it is not a dismissal of genuine effort.

Suitable when someone gains success or a happy turn without connections or patronage, or to reassure a person lacking influential backers. It can gently deflate anyone claiming credit for another's good fortune, but should not be used to belittle someone's real effort.
