The Blade iscribed with quran verse :
Al-saifu ‘izzah liman qāta‘ahā wa ‘izzah lil-m...” Translation and meaning: The translation of the main phrase is: "The sword is pride (or honor/glory) for the one who wields it..." Detailed text analysis: Al-saifu: Means "The sword." ‘Izzah: Represents the concept of "pride," "honor," "might," or "glory." Liman qāta‘ahā: Literally means "for the one who cuts with it" or "for the one who uses it"—a poetic, figurative way of saying "the one who wields it" or "the one who fights with it." Wa ‘izzah lil-m...: The final part reads "and pride for the...", but the inscription cuts off or becomes less legible towards the bottom of the photo (faint letters are visible that could form words related to believers, warriors, or the homeland).
The full text visible in this section is: ... بالحق لا ... زينة السيف وزينة Transliteration: ... *bil-haqq lā bil-bātil* ... *bil-yaman zīnat al-saif wa zīnat al-rijāl*. Translation and meaning: The translation of this part of the text is: "... with justice (truth) and not with falsehood... with grace (or prosperity), the beauty of the sword is the beauty of men." Detailed analysis of the text: *Bil-haqq lā bil-bātil*: Means "with truth/justice and not with falsehood/injustice." It indicates that the sword must be used only for noble and just causes. *Bil-yaman*: Means "with blessing," "with grace," or "with prosperity." *Zīnat al-saif wa zīnat al-rijāl*: Literally means "the adornment of the sword and the adornment of men" (understood figuratively as the valor, honor, or virtue that brings pride to both the weapon and the man who bears it). The text inscribed in this final section reads: ... في السيف وعزة لمن وعز العرب Transliteration: ... *fī al-saif wa ‘izzah liman qāta‘ahā wa ‘izz al-‘arab wal-watan*. Translation and meaning: The translation of this last section is: "... in the sword, and it is pride for the one who wields it, and glory for the Arabs and the homeland." Detailed analysis of the text: *Wa ‘izz al-‘arab*: Means "and the glory/pride of the Arabs." *Wal-watan*: Means "and of the homeland" (or nation). The sword is a source of pride for the one who wields it—with justice, not falsehood; with grace. The beauty of the sword is the beauty of men; in the sword lies pride for the bearer, and glory for the Arabs and the homeland.
