In the name of God, the All-Benevolent, the Benevolent.
May the twofold power to act of the Father of the Flame go to perdition, and he himself has gone to perdition.
تَبَّتْ يَدَآ أَبِى لَهَبٍۢ وَتَبَّ
His goods and what he acquired have availed him nothing.
مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥ وَمَا كَسَبَ
He will burn in a fire of flame, and his wife as well,
سَيَصْلَىٰ نَارًۭا ذَاتَ لَهَبٍۢ وَٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ
