Will Abu Lahab receive cold water every Monday in Jahannum?
Question
Is it true that because Abu Lahab freed the slave that brought the news of Nabi's (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) birth to him, every monday in jahannam he'll be given a glass of cold water to drink.
Answer
No, this is not established in any book of hadeeth.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
