This program is the bug free and enhanced version of the above MD5 cracker that reads the file containing list of hashed passwords and checks it against hashed word from the English dictionary word list. Hope it is helpful.
I downloaded the English dictionary from the following link https://github.com/dwyl/english-words
# md5cracker.py

try:
hashdocument = open(hash_file,'r')
except IOError:

sys.exit()

hash = hash.rstrip('\n')
print(hash)
i = 0

for word in wordlistfile:

m.update(word.encode('utf-8'))
word_hash = m.hexdigest()
if word_hash==hash:
print('The word, hash combination is ' + word + ',' + hash)
count += 1
break

print('Itiration is ' + str(i))
