Rebels in neighboring Syria have threatened to target Hezbollah, which intervened in the fighting there to support President Bashar al-Assad.
Two rockets hit south Beirut in May.
The explosion was caused by a car bomb in the car park of an Islamic centre, Hezbollah-run al-Manar TV said.
Dramatic footage broadcast by the station showed firefighters trying to put out the flames.
“This is a message, but we will not bow,” Hezbollah official Ziad Waked told al-Manar, AP reports.
Hezbollah fighters were instrumental in Syrian government forces’ strategic victory in Qusair in early June.
