المسد

Tabbat yada abee lahabin watabba

May the hands of Abu Lahab[1] perish, and may he perish!

Ma aghna AAanhu maluhu wama kasaba

Neither his wealth nor his worldly gains will avail him.

Sayasla naran thata lahabin

He will burn in a Flaming Fire,

Waimraatuhu hammalata alhatabi

and so will his wife[2], the carrier of firewood,

Fee jeediha hablun min masadin

around her neck will be a rope of palm fiber[3].
