| Surah Al-Masad | |||
| In the Name of Allāh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. | |||
| 1 | Perish the two hands of Abū Lahab ( an uncle of the Prophet ), and perish he! | ||
| 2 | His wealth and his children ( etc. ) will not benefit him! | ||
| 3 | He will be burnt in a Fire of blazing flames! | ||
| 4 | And his wife too, who carries wood ( thorns of Sadan which she used to put on the way of the Prophet, or use to slander him ). | ||
| 5 | In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad ( palm fibre ). | ||
