Tafsir of Surah Abi Lahab: the story of the lion seizing the son of Abu Lahab

It is narrated from Abu Aqrab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: Lahab bin Abi Lahab (the son of Abu Lahab) used to revile the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said (supplicating against him): "O Allah, set one of Your dogs upon him." Then he set out in a caravan towards Syria. They stopped at a place, and he said: "I fear the supplication of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)." The people said to him: "Not at all (nothing will happen)." Then they placed their baggage around him and sat guarding him. Then a lion came, snatched him and carried him off.
The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning "His wealth and what he earned will not avail him" [Surah al-Masad: 2], that he said: "His earnings means his children."
Ahmad bin Hanbal (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Ibn Uyaynah did not mention his hearing (sama') in it; then it reached me that he heard it from Umar bin Habib.

It is narrated from Abu al-Tufayl (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: One day I was with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) when the sons of Abu Lahab came to him, disputing over some matter of theirs. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) stood up to reconcile between them, and one of them pushed him and he fell onto the bed. At this Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) became angry and said: "Take these wicked earnings away from me." He meant his (Abu Lahab's) children, (as Allah says): "His wealth and what he earned (meaning his children) will not avail him" [Surah al-Masad: 2].
