"الشرف والعار لا ينبعان من أي حالة، قم بدورك جيداً، فهناك يكمن كل الشرف."

Simplified Meaning:
Your social standing or background doesn’t determine your worth or respect. Instead, it’s about how well you perform your role in life. Imagine you’re in a play, it doesn’t matter if you’re playing a king or a servant, what matters is that you do your best with the part you’re given. A janitor who does their job diligently and with pride deserves as much respect as a CEO. By focusing on doing your duties well, regardless of what they are, you earn true honor. So, whether you’re a student, a worker, or a parent, putting in your best effort is what truly makes you honorable.
