☪️ Quran: Chapter 111The Palm Fiber – Al Masaed سورة المسد

Revelation place: Mecca

Revelation order: 6

Number of verses: 5

Theme:

This Surah directly addresses and condemns Abu Lahab, the Prophet’s uncle, who became one of his fiercest enemies. Despite their blood relation, he opposed the message of Islam with hostility, mockery, and aggression. The Surah reveals that lineage, power, or wealth cannot save one from Allah’s punishment if they oppose His Messenger. It illustrates the Quranic principle that each person is responsible for their own deeds, regardless of family ties.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan, the condemned.

With the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.

(Acknowledge and declare that Allah is the author of the Quran)

1- Perished the hands (deeds) of Abu Lahab, and perished he

2- Will not avail him what is for him (wealth, child), or what he earned

3- Will spark (roast) with fire of blazing flames

4- And his woman (wife also), the carrier of the firewood (To feed the fire for Abu Lahab)

5- Upon her neck a twisted rope of palm (or fire, that will drag her to hellfire, for inciting against the prophet and attempting to harm him)
