498 - Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Matar and Zakariyya ibn Yahya informed us that Abu Talib narrated to them regarding this issue. Abu Abd Allah [Ahmad ibn Hanbal] said: "And I bear witness that Abu Lahab is in the Fire. They do not say that Abu Lahab is in the Fire; there is no Hadith regarding Abu Lahab that he is in the Fire, but it is in the Book [the Qur'an]. We bear witness that Abu Lahab and Abu Jahl are in the Fire."
