Al-Masad condemns Abu Lahab's hostility to the Messenger and states that wealth and status cannot avert consequences.

Read Surah Al-Masad (5 verses) as a connected chapter: follow links between neighbouring verses and compare each passage with the wider Qur’anic context. The Arabic text and English and Urdu translations are rendered on this page before any commentary service loads. Use the source selector to compare available classical tafsir traditions; the Al-Mizan study guide is clearly marked as editorial notes, not a verbatim translation. If a remote commentary service is unavailable, the chapter text, translations, study introduction, and navigation remain available.

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ تَبَّتْ يَدَآ أَبِى لَهَبٍۢ وَتَبَّ

DOOMED are the hands of him of the glowing countence: and doomed is he!

ابولہب کے ہاتھ ٹوٹیں اور وہ ہلاک ہو

2

مَآ أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُ مَالُهُۥ وَمَا كَسَبَ

What will his wealth avail him, and all that he has gained?

نہ تو اس کا مال ہی اس کے کچھ کام آیا اور نہ وہ جو اس نے کمایا

3

سَيَصْلَىٰ نَارًۭا ذَاتَ لَهَبٍۢ

[In the life to come] he shall have to endure a fire fiercely glowing;

وہ جلد بھڑکتی ہوئی آگ میں داخل ہو گا

4

وَٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ حَمَّالَةَ ٱلْحَطَبِ

together with his wife, that carrier of evil tales,

اور اس کی جورو بھی جو ایندھن سر پر اٹھائے پھرتی ہے

5

فِى جِيدِهَا حَبْلٌۭ مِّن مَّسَدٍۭ

[who bears] around her neck a rope of twisted strands!

اس کے گلے میں مونج کی رسّی ہو گی
