意思
To be in control of a situation or organization.
文化背景
In the Gulf, equestrianism is a prestigious heritage. Using this phrase in business meetings commands respect as it subtly references the noble tradition of horse breeding and riding. While Egyptians use many local idioms, 'أمسك بزمام الأمور' is the go-to phrase for serious political talk on talk shows like those on MBC Masr. In Lebanon and Syria, this phrase is often used in intellectual and academic circles to discuss social or political shifts. In Morocco and Tunisia, this phrase is common in formal administrative contexts, often appearing in official newspapers (L'Opinion, etc.) translated from or into French.
Use with 'Tawalla'
If you want to sound even more professional, use 'تولى' (Tawalla) instead of 'أمسك' when talking about someone officially starting a new job.
Don't forget the 'Bi'
Without the 'bi' (بـ), the sentence is grammatically incomplete in formal Arabic.
