B1 Proverb 正式

جزاء سنمار

jaza'a Sannamar

Sinimar's reward

意思

Being rewarded with evil or betrayal for good deeds or loyalty.

🌍

文化背景

The palace of Al-Khawarnaq was located near Najaf in modern-day Iraq. Iraqis take pride in this history, even the tragic parts, as it shows the ancient roots of their architectural mastery. The story is a staple of 'Adab' literature. Authors like Al-Jahiz and Al-Isfahani referenced it to teach ethics and the dangers of serving fickle rulers. In the Levant, this proverb is often used in political discussions to criticize the lack of loyalty in modern governance. In traditional Gulf society, where tribal loyalty is key, 'Jaza' Sinimmar' is seen as a violation of the highest social codes.

🎯

Use for Irony

The best time to use this is when the betrayal is ironic—like a security expert being robbed.

⚠️

Don't Overuse

Because it's a 'frozen' proverb, using it too often makes you sound like a history book. Save it for big moments.
