الحرامى على راسه ريشه Al harami ala rasou risha Translation: The thief has a feather on his head. Meaning: You can tell a guilty person from their reactions. Legend has it that King Solomon was judging a case about a theft. He was told that poultry was stolen and that the guilty person is in the crowd before him. So he said, “the thief has a feather on his head.” At which point the guilty party rubbed his head and was found out.
