Bismillah arak maan nira heem, Alhamdhulillahi Rabil Alamin; arak maan nira heem. Tabbat yadaaa 'Abil Laha bin wa taab Maa agna anhu maa luhuu wa maa kasab Sa yasla Naaran zaata Lahab Wam ra a'tuh: hammaa latal ha'tab Fi jidi hab'lum mim-masad

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful Perish the hands of the flame! Perish! No profit to him from all his wealth and all his gains Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of blazing flame! His wife shall carry the wood as fuel A twisted rope of palm leaf fibre around ger neck |
This early Makkan Surah carries a general lesson that cruelity ultimately ruins itself. Mankind that rages against holy things are burnt by their own rage and hands that are instruments of their actions perish. Neither status nor wealth will save them and Women who are made of nobler emotions may feed unholy rage with fiercer fuel to their own deterament.
