Moroccan Proverb drawn by Jihad Eliassa

As Salamu a3laikoum,
My publication today is unexpected and unprepared, but I just discovered this Moroccan illustrator, Jihad Eliassa and as I love his work, I decided to share it on the blog and use it for our task , which is to learn Moroccan Arabic.

Proverb " Fhad lberd drab l7did mahaddo skhun".
Traduccion : In this cold, hit the iron while it is still hot.
Meaning: Do not be lazy in a situation. To solve a situation is better to do it as soon as possible.
As  the iron that can be modeled  when is heated and becomes hard when it cools. .

But what I liked more of the picture it is the funny comparison  with that character, with a frozen mandible, eating a hot plate of lentils (source of iron) Cultural note: I dont think there is a moroccan man who doesnt like la3ds..

If you like this illustration  you can see more on his  Facebook page . Sure you like it.

Tsba7 3la khair. Beslama  a3laikoum.
