1. Huthayl asked the Messenger of Allah an obscene question,
Huthayl went astray with what they asked, and did not hit the mark,
١. سالَت هُذَيلٌ رَسولَ اللَهِ فاحِشَةً
ضَلَّت هُذَيلٌ بِما سالَت وَلَم تُصِبِ
2. They asked their Messenger what he would not grant them
Until death, and they were the outcasts of the Arabs,
٢. سالوا رَسولَهُمُ ما لَيسَ مُعطِيَهُم
حَتّى المَماتِ وَكانوا سُبَّةَ العَرَبِ
3. And you will never see anyone calling upon Huthayl,
Calling for an honor from the abode of war,
٣. وَلَن تَرى لِهُذَيلٍ داعِياً أَبَداً
يَدعو لِمَكرُمَةٍ عَن مَنزِلِ الحَربِ
4. They certainly wanted indecency and their foolishness,
And to make lawful what was forbidden in the books.
٤. لَقَد أَرادوا خِلالَ الفُحشِ وَيحَهُمُ
وَأَن يُحِلّوا حَراماً كانَ في الكُتُبِ
