Bedeutung
Something that is so obvious and clear that it doesn't need further explanation or proof.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Arab universities, using this phrase in a thesis defense shows that the student has mastered the 'Lughat al-Bahth' (Language of Research). It is expected in the 'Problem Statement' section. Arabic news channels like Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya use this phrase to frame 'universal truths' before diving into controversial analysis. It helps maintain an aura of objectivity. The concept of 'Badiha' is linked to the 'Improvisation' of poets. A poet with a strong 'Badiha' could compose verses instantly. This phrase carries that legacy of 'instant truth'. In official statements from Arab Ministries of Foreign Affairs, this phrase is used to reiterate commitment to international law or shared values.
The 'Inna' Rule
Always remember that after 'al-qawl', you use 'inna' (with a bottom hamza) if it's the start of the quoted statement. It makes you sound like a grammar pro.
Don't Overuse
If every sentence starts with 'It goes without saying,' your writing will become repetitive and lose its impact. Save it for the most important axioms.

The Power of Consensus
