The camel herders catch up gradually رويدا يلحق الداريون

 The camel herder: the owner of blessings, so named because he resides in his home, hence the name. This proverb is used to describe genuine concern for a matter, as the camel herder's concern is more sincere than the camel herder's.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The closest English equivalent to this proverb is:

Slow and steady wins the race.

This is very close in meaning to the Arabic proverb "slow and steady wins the race," meaning that patience combined with sincere diligence leads to success.

Another related expression is:

Take your time, but don't lose sight of the goal.

Because the Arabic proverb indicates that the person truly in charge is more diligent and dedicated than others, there is a similar expression:

The owner's eye fattens the horse.

This means that the owner's own attention is the reason for success and completion, and it is very close to the idea of ​​the person who is aware of their blessings and strives to achieve them through their great care.

الداري: رب النعم، سمي بذلك لأنه مقيم في داره، فنسب إليها.يضرب في صدق الاهتمام بالأمر، لأن اهتمام صاحب الإبل أصدق من اهتمام الراعي
