S?rat ?l Lahab is a damnation of Ab? Lahab and his family. Being the paternal uncle of the Prophet ? meant that he had a great responsibility to assist and support the Prophet ?. However, when he chose to oppose the Messenger ?, it was considered so evil by All?h that he and his family have been damned in the Qur’?n for all eternity.

He is the only enemy of the Prophet ? mentioned in the Qur’?n by name. Despite all the wealth he amassed and the children he had, nothing could avail him before the wrath and punishment of All?h and thus he is destined to enter the flaming fire of hell.

Along with his and his family's traitorous behaviour some of the core messages of this detailed exegeses is that, it is not who you are but what you do that is significant with All?h, even if you are related to a Messenger ?.

Along with this message, we learn that no one is responsible for another’s evil actions and behaviour. The Prophet ? says in a ?ad?th, "Whoever’s deeds keeps him behind, his lineage will not propel him forward." [Muslim]
