Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is this narration authentic, namely that the punishment is lifted from Abu Lahab every Monday because he freed the slave woman who informed him of the birth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?
Answer:
The punishment is lifted from him? I do not know. However, it is reported that he feels a burning sensation in his thumb, and it is said that this is because he had Thuwaybah breastfeed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when he was born. Allah knows best. Yes.
