Al-Masad (, ( "Twisted Strands" or "The Palm Fiber") is the 111th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran. It has 5 āyāt or verses and recounts the punishments that Abū Lahab and his wife will suffer in Hell.
A study on Quranic manuscripts within the Vatican Library noted the titles Lahab (Flame); masad; al-ḥaṭab; and Abī Lahab. In the 1730s the chapter title was known as Abu Laheb by translator George Sale.
