Sura 111 : Thorns (Al-Masad)
[111:0] In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
[111:1] Condemned are the works of Abee Lahab, and he is condemned.*
[111:2] His money and whatever he has accomplished will never help him.
[111:3] He has incurred the blazing Hell.
[111:4] Also his wife, who led the persecution.
[111:5] She will be (resurrected) with a rope of thorns around her neck.
*111:1 Abee Lahab was Muhammad's uncle and the leader of the opposition. His wife carried out a campaign of persecution against Muhammad and the believers. Like all descriptions of Heaven and Hell, the rope of thorns is an allegory.
