«عاداتُ الساداتِ ساداتُ العاداتِ»
The habits of the eminent are the eminent among habits.
In the first construction ʿādāt is the first member of an iḍāfah and sādāt its complement. In the second, the words switch grammatical positions: sādāt becomes the first term and ʿādāt the complement.
The rhetorical point is the meaningful reversal of the relation, not simple lexical repetition. The first unit identifies a category of habits; the second praises their rank.
