بعد عن الشر و غنيله

I had seen this proverb several places and it seems that it is used throughout the Arabic speaking world.

بعد عن الشر و غنيله
(ba'ada 'an esh-sh'ar wa ghaniluhu)
Literal meaning: Run away from danger and sing to it
Meaning: Avoid danger, and be glad that it hit someone else.A warning against exposing yourself to danger.
