Thorns (Al-Masad)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
May the hands of Abu Lahab perish, may he be ruined. 1 His wealth did not avail him, nor his acquisitions. 2 [In the life to come] he shall have to endure a fire fiercely glowing; 3 along with his wife, that carrier of slanderous tales; 4 Will have upon her neck a halter of palm-fibre. 5
