حامية

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature Contemporary novel
أخذ محمود غفلة يسرد عليهم قصص البطولات والمعارك حامية الوطيس التي وقعت بين الأفغان والروس، وحياة الجهاد الحقيقية، وكيف يأتي النصر بطريقة مفاجئة لا يُعرف سببها ولا يوجد سبب مقنع سوى أنها الملائكة التي تقاتل معهم، والسعادة التي تحف المجاهدين بعد الانتهاء من المعركة

fiery hot battle

There is already an existing equivalent approximation between the Arabic ” معركة حامية” and “hot bottle”, in as far as the collocations and indication of the words being used in the two expressions are concerned. What is left practically is to try, if possible, reflecting the indication of "وطيس"/ الوطيس. If we try to lookup a modifier that falls in tune with “hot” and is an acceptable English collocation, i.e. sounds natural English, we can possibly use "fiery hot". Of course, other alternatives can be used but each needs to be checked and googled, for a non-native, to make sure that it falls in tune with the English corpus
