Note CA — CHAPTER 7 BELIEF AND DENIAL
Reading edition
Such was the verdict of the Qur'án (cxi) on Abú-Lahab:
Perish the hands of Abú Lahab, and perish he! His wealth avails him not, neither what he has earned; he shall roast at a flaming fire and his wife, the carrier of the firewood, upon her neck a rope of palm-fibre.[2]
