Have you heard the faults of the transient world? Who would buy dates riddled with wasps?

مُشْتَارٌ riddled

A passive-participle adjective describing the dates as wasp-ridden — built from a verb to name the state of having been spoiled. It rounds off the image of worthless, infested goods. As a describing word it leans on the noun it qualifies, sealing the rhetorical point that no one would buy such a thing.
