Al-Masad 111:1

May the hands of Abu Lahab[1] perish, and may he perish!

[1] i.e., the Prophet's uncle, who was one of the staunchest enemies of Islam.

May the hands of Abū Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.[2008]

[2008] Abū Lahab (the Prophet's uncle) , who was an enemy of Islām.

1. Perish the two hands of Abû Lahab (an uncle of the Prophet) and perish he![1]

[1] (V.111:1) Narrated Ibn ‘Abbâs رضي الله عنهما : "When the Verse, ‘And warn your tribe (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) of near kindred.’ (V.26:214) was revealed, Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم went out, and when he had ascended As-Safâ mountain, he shouted, ‘Yâ Sabâhâh !’* The people said, ‘What is that?’ Then they gathered around him, whereupon he said, ‘Do you see? If I inform you that cavalrymen are proceeding up the side of this mountain, will you believe me?’ They said, ‘We have never heard you telling a lie.’ Then he said, ‘I am a plain warner to you of a coming severe punishment.’ Abû Lahab said, ‘May you perish! You gathered us only for this reason?’ Then Abu Lahab went away. So [Sûrat Al-Masad] ‘Perish the hands of Abu Lahab!’ was revealed. (V.111:1). (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 6, Hadith No.495).
* "Yâ Sabâhâh!" is an Arabic expression used when one appeals for help or draws the attention of others to some danger.

The power of Abu Lahab will perish, and he will perish.
