Imam al-Rida a was quoted as saying that Abu Lahab threatened the Prophet s , and the Prophet s replied: "if you can hurt me, then I am a liar," and this was the Prophet's s first miracle. In one case, the people of the Quraysh objected to Abu Talib 's support of a Muslim, but Abu Lahab supported him and threatened that he would accompany Abu Talib. His response pleased Abu Talib and he tried to call him to support Islam by composing some poems.
On the day when the plan was supposed to be executed, Abu Talib sent Ali a to Abu Lahab to inform him about the plan to kill the Prophet s. Abu Lahab angrily went to the heads of polytheists and prohibited them from doing so.
He swore to Lat and 'Uzza that he would convert to Islam. Thus, the heads of polytheists apologized to him and cancelled their plan. According to Sunni sources, after the death of Abu Talib and Khadija , the Quraysh unprecedently increased their persecution of the Prophet s , and when Abu Lahab learned about this, he said he had not abandoned 'Abd al-Muttalib's religion, but he nonetheless supported his nephew.

According to some sources, this was because of his illness.
Hisham b. Mughira in his stead: 'As he had a debt to Abu Lahab; Abu Lahab forgave his debt in exchange for going to the battle in his place. Abu Lahab knocked him to the ground and began to beat him. However, Umm al-Fadl , al-'Abbas's wife, defended Abu Rafi' by beating a wooden stick on Aby Lahab's head, leaving a deep wound on his head. When the Prophet s began his public call to Islam, he invited the tribes of the Quraysh and warned them to beware of the divine punishment and called them to believe in monotheism , Abu Lahab cursed the Prophet s by saying "may you be ruined" tabban laka.
