Explanatory translation

5His wife too will enter a blazing fire with a thick rope, twisted like a cable, around her neck. She will end up in Hell with the evils she committed wound around her neck. For, to torment the Prophet, she carried thorny branches and piled them in front of his door. Coils of fire like palm fiber, wound around both their necks, will drag them down to the depths of Hell. Their every act that goes against Our verses is like fiery palm fibers binding them to Hell.
