المثل العربي «خُذْ حَظَّ عَبْدٍ أَبَاهُ» يُضرب لمن ترك نصيبه أو زهد فيه أو سخطه، فيُقال لغيره: خذه أنت، فهو قد أضاعه بنفسه.
ولا يوجد مثل إنجليزي مطابق حرفيًا، لكن توجد أمثال وتعابير تؤدي المعنى، منها: “One man's loss is another man's gain.”
أي: خسارة شخص هي مكسب لآخر.
وهو أقرب مقابل للمثل العربي.
“If he doesn't want it, someone else will.”
أي: إذا لم يرده، فسيريده غيره.
“Another man's trash is another man's treasure.”
أي: ما يراه أحد بلا قيمة قد يكون كنزًا لغيره.
وهو قريب إذا كان المقصود التفريط فيما ينفع.
“Use it or lose it.”
أي: استعمله وإلا فقدته.
وهو قريب من فكرة التفريط في النصيب.
وأقرب مقابل للمثل العربي هو:
“One man's loss is another man's gain.”
«خسارةُ شخصٍ هي مكسبٌ لآخر.»
فهو يوافق المعنى المقصود: أن من فرّط في حظه أو تركه، انتفع به غيره.

The Arabic proverb “Take the share of a slave’s father” is used to describe someone who has neglected, disdained, or become dissatisfied with their share. It is said to someone else: “Take it yourself,” as they have already lost it themselves.
There is no exact English equivalent, but there are proverbs and expressions that convey the same meaning, such as:
“One man’s loss is another man’s gain.”
Meaning: One person’s loss is another man’s gain.
This is the closest equivalent to the Arabic proverb.
“If he doesn’t want it, someone else will.”
Meaning: If he doesn’t want it, someone else will.
“Another man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
Meaning: What one person considers worthless may be a treasure to another.
This is similar if the intention is to describe the squandering of something beneficial.
“Use it or lose it.”
Meaning: Use it or lose it.
This is similar to the idea of ​​neglecting one’s share.
The closest equivalent to the Arabic proverb is:
“One man’s loss is another man’s gain.”
“One person’s loss is another’s gain.”
This perfectly captures the intended meaning: that whoever squanders or abandons their opportunity benefits another.

You are delighted with his taste ذُقْهُ تَغْتَبِطْ‏.‏

Its origin is that a group of people were drinking, and among them was a man who did not drink, so they became happy while he was sleeping, so this saying was said to him: That is, taste until you feel happy, as we were happy.
He will be punished for someone who has been deprived for his delay in striving
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This proverb originates from the saying, "Taste it and you'll be delighted," meaning, "Try it and you'll get what we got." It then came to be used to describe someone who is deprived of good or benefit due to their inaction or lack of initiative.
Some of the closest English equivalents are:
"You can't win if you don't play."
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
This proverb is very close in meaning.
"He who hesitates is lost."
"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
"If you want the fruit, you must climb the tree."
"If you want the fruit, you must make the effort."
The closest equivalent to the Arabic proverb in its implication of loss due to inaction is:
“Nothing ventured, nothing gained.”
“There is no gain for one who neither strives nor tries.”

أصله أن قوما كانوا على شَرَاب وفيهم رجل لا يشرب، فطربوا وهو مُسْبِت، فقيل له هذا القول‏:‏ أي ذُقْ حتى تَطْرَبَ كما طربنا‏.‏
يضرب لمن حُرِم لتَوَانيه في السعي
