Siirah Al-Lahab : 1 1 1 : 1 - 5 908 SGrah Al-Lahab (The Flame) This SGrah is Makk:, and it has 5 verses With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful Verses 1 - 5 Perish the two hands of AbE Lahab, and perish he! [I] Neither his wealth availed him, nor what he earned. 121 He will soon enter a fire, full of flames, [31 and his wife as well, the wicked carrier of firewood. [4] In her neck there is a rope of twisted palm-fibre. [51 Name and Nickname of Abii Lahab Abii Lahab [Father of Flame] was the Nickname of 'Abd-ul-'UzzZ, one of the sons of 'Abdul-Muttalib. As he was ruddy in complexion, he was nicknamed Abii Lahab [Father of Flame]. The Qur7Zn did not mention his real name, because it smacked of paganism, and the last element 'lahab' [Flame] in the nickname has also nexus with the flame of Hell. This person was the inveterate enemy and persecutor of the Holy Prophet $&$, and violently opposed Islam. Whenever the Holy Prophet invited the people to Islamic Faith, he would stand up and cry lie to his message. [Ibn (1) The word 'wicked' is though not available in the text in express terms, the na~b on &mmZlah, which is termed in Arabic grammar as 'nasb 'aladh-dhamm' carries this meaning. (Muhammad Taqi <strong>Usmani</strong>)
Cause of Revelation ,, ,, 11 I - It is recorded in the two Sah;hs that when the verse a)Yl&x;&i; (Warn your closest relatives - 26:214) was revealed, the ~ oProphet l ~ $& ascended the mount SafZ and cried out to the tribe of Quraish in a manner that was known among them for warning of an attack by the enemy. Some narratives maintain that he called the different Makkan clans by name, the clan of BanC 'A-bd MunZf, BanL 'Abdul-Muttalib and others. All the clans of Quraish gathered around him, and he said to them: 'If I were to tell you that the enemy is about to attack you in the morning or in the evening, would you believe me' They all unanimously replied in the affirmative. Then he said: 'Verily, I am a Warner sent to you before the coming of a severe torment (as a result of disbelief or paganism). AbE Lahab then responded:% 143 6 'Ruin may seize you ! Is it for this purpose that you have called us together' and picked up a stone to hit him. Thus this SGrah was revealed. Verse [111:11 G; 4'>i TG (Perish the two hands of AbG Lahab, I and perish he!) The word yad literally means a 'hand'. Because hands play a very important role in all of human works and actions, often yad (hand) refers to the human person, as in the phrase ~ I &% G C+ A,; (...All this is due to what your hands have sent forth.. .22:10). Baihaql has recorded on the authority of SayyidnZ Ibn 'AbbZs & that one day Abii Lahab said to the people that Muhammad says that such-and-such a thing will happen after death. Then, pointing to his hands, said that none of those things have come into these hands; then he addressed his hands and said: k JL 12 lb L&i &JL. 6 (Perish you! I do not see any of the things Muhammad $$# said in you.) Therefore, the Qur'Zn attributes his destruction to his hands. The verb tabba is derived from tabab which means 'to perish'. In verse [I], the first sentence L.$ &i 1% (Perish the two hands of AbG Lahab) is 2 . Y in the form of a prayer invoking or imprecating destruction upon AbG Lahab, and the second sentence wa tabba is the declarative sentence prophesying the consequence of the invocation. The first sentence was invoked against him to satisfy the indignation of the Muslims, because when AbE Lahab imprecated destruction upon the Holy Prophet s, it was the desire of the Muslims that imprecation be invoked against him.
