Meanings
Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab (an uncle of the Prophet), and perish he!

His wealth will not avail him or that which he gained.

He will be burnt in a Fire of blazing flames!

And his wife too, who carries wood (thorns of Sadan which she used to put on the way of the Prophet (Peace be upon him), or use to slander him).

In her neck is a twisted rope of Masad (palm fibre).

Translation:Noble Quran, 1999

May the hands of Abu Lahab be ruined, and ruined is he.

His wealth will not avail him or that which he gained.

He will [enter to] burn in a Fire of [blazing] flame

And his wife [as well] – the carrier of firewood.

Around her neck is a rope of [twisted] fiber.

Translation:Saheeh International, 1997

Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he!

No profit to him from all his wealth, and all his gains!

Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of Blazing Flame!

His wife shall carry the (crackling) wood - As fuel!-

A twisted rope of palm-leaf fibre round her (own) neck!

Translation:Yusuf Ali, 1934

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

His wealth and gains will not exempt him.

He will be plunged in flaming Fire,

And his wife, the wood-carrier

Will have upon her neck a halter of palm-fibre.

Translation:Pickthall, 1930
