Abu Lahab was his title. His name was \u2018Abdul \u2018Uzza bin \u2018Abdil Muttalib. He was the uncle of Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) (the brother of Rasulullah\u2019s (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) father).<\/p>\n

In the very beginning, when Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) assembled the Quraish to preach the message of Islam to them, Abu Lahab was the first person to reject him saying:<\/p>\n

\u062a\u0628\u0627 \u0644\u0643 \u0633\u0627\u0626\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u064a\u0648\u0645 \u0623\u0644\u0647\u0630\u0627 \u062c\u0645\u0639\u062a\u0646\u0627<\/p>\n

May Allah destroy you! Did you assemble us here for this?<\/em><\/p>\n

It was after this incident that Surah Lahab was revealed.<\/p>\n

Since Abu Lahab was extremely wealthy, whenever he was warned about the punishment of Allah Ta\u2018ala, he would say, \u201cIf my nephew is true in his message, I will save myself from the punishment of the Day of Qiyaamah by paying money and giving my children in ransom.\u201d The verse \u201cNeither his wealth nor his earnings will avail him from the punishment\u201d is referring to this statement of Abu Lahab.<\/p>\n
