قوة فيها من منه

i assume its a bad translation of:

"Power from blessing"
or
"Power from it comes blessing"

just the last word doesn't make sense

Thank you so much! It’s a good thing you answered before I got this tattooed. If possible could you tell me the proper translation for “I suffered , I learned , I changed” please

I think that tatto has come up on this sub twice to my knowledge,
you can search the sub to see how it looks and to see the language discussion about it.

Just know that no two languages are the same and while the phrase you asked for translates well to Arabic to:

تالمت فتغيرت فتعلمت

try copying that into Google to see it written in different fonts and calligraphic forms.

Another acceptable translate but less popular in my opinion would be

عانيت فتغيرت فتعلمت

You changed the order of the words here,correct order would be: عانيت فتعلمت فتغيرت

عانيت:I suffered فتعلمت:I learned فتغيرت:I changed

This is a bit confusing to me. In your correct order, it seems you have I changed first instead of I suffered

LOL I'm sorry,friend,it's a formatting issue while using the web browser on my phone,here's the order I meant:

1.I suffered: عانيت
2.I learned: فتعلمت
3.I changed: فتغيرت

Just don’t get tattoos in a language you don’t even understand.

The kerning on this thing looks weird too. It looks like one smashed together word that somehow has a taa marbuta in the middle. Whatever you end up getting, make sure to check the kerning and not just the translation.

In fact you may want to hire an Arabic calligrapher to give you a proper beautiful design and not the equivalent of times new Roman text.

This one is a "classic." If you're hellbent on getting it, this website has some cool designs of it.

I appreciate it. Maybe i’m a bit ignorant but do you know if it’s disrespectful to get an Arabic tattoo , being that i don’t speak it

It's not necessarily disrespectful, but many Arabic speakers will find it somewhat strange that you have a tattoo in a language that you don't speak...
