The answer

Ugliness: The opposite of beauty, and it can be in appearance or action. A thing may become ugly (qabuha) with ugliness (qubh, qubuh, qabah, qabahah, qubuhah). Al-Maqbuh (the one made ugly) is he who is distanced from all good. The Companion's saying, "May Allah make these two hands ugly," is either a supplication against the doer or an statement about the ugliness of his action.
