Surah al-Masad ayah 1

Date: June 08, 2002 | 27 Rabi al-Awwal 1423 Hijriah
Arabic text of ayah

Tabbat yada Abi Lahab wa tabb

Perish the hands of Abu Lahab, and may he perish!

The following is an excerpt of commentary on this ayah, from Syed Qutb:

The Arabic term rendered here as 'perish' also signifies failure and cutting off. The term is used twice in two different senses. It is used first as an appeal, while in the second occurence it implies the granting of the appeal and its fulfillment. So, in one short verse, an action is realised which draws the curtains upon a scene of a completed battle.
