It is narrated from Hazrat Humaid that the lightest punishment that will be given to someone is that he will be made to wear shoes of fire, due to which his brain will boil and his heart will scream and be on the verge of bursting, and he will say that no one has been given as severe a punishment as the punishment he has been subjected to.

Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair (may Allah have mercy on him), in the explanation of the verse { فَسُحْقًا لأَصْحَابِ السَّعِیرِ } of the Holy Qur'an, says that it refers to a valley of Hell.

Hazrat Abdullah, in the explanation of the verse of the Holy Qur'an { وَہُمْ فِیہَا کَالِحُونَ }, says that just as the head seller heats the head over the fire.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In the grave of a disbeliever, ninety-nine serpents will be set upon him, which will keep biting him until the Day of Resurrection. If even one of those serpents were to blow on the earth, all vegetation on the earth would cease to grow.

Hasan, in the commentary of the verse of the Holy Qur'an {إِنَّ عَذَابَہَا کَانَ غَرَامًا }, says that know that every creditor will be separated from his debtor except for the debtor of Hell.

The meaning of the verse { فَضُرِبَ بَیْنَہُمْ بِسُورٍ لَہُ بَابٌ بَاطِنُہُ فِیہِ الرَّحْمَۃُ } in the Holy Quran is Paradise, and the meaning of { وَظَاہِرُہُ مِنْ قِبَلِہِ الْعَذَابُ } is Hell.

It is narrated from Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair (may Allah have mercy on him) that Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him) and Hazrat Haroon (peace be upon him) sent the two sons of Hazrat Haroon for a sacrifice. They came and lied that the fire had consumed it. Allah Almighty sent down fire upon both of them, which burned them. Allah Almighty revealed to Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him) and Haroon (peace be upon him) and said: "I do this with My friends, so how will I deal with My enemies?!"

Hazrat Harm bin Hayan used to say that I have not seen anything like the Fire from which the one fleeing is asleep, and I have not seen anything like Paradise whose seeker is asleep.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Bridge of Sirat will be placed over Hell. It will have thorns like the plant called Sa'dan. Then people will begin to cross it. Some will attain salvation safely. Some will be scratched but will be saved. Some will be seized and thrown into it. When Allah Almighty has finished judging His servants, the believers will not see some people who used to pray in the world, give zakat, fast, perform Hajj, and strive in jihad. The believers will say: O our Lord! Some of Your servants used to pray in the world, give zakat, fast, perform Hajj, and strive in jihad, but now we do not see them? Allah Almighty will say: Go towards Hell, and take out from it whomever you recognize among them. They will go towards Hell, and the fire will have seized people according to their deeds. Some will have fire up to their feet, some up to half their shins, some up to their knees, some up to their bellies, some up to their chests, and some up to their necks. Then they will be dipped into the Water of Life. The people asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is the Water of Life? He said: It is the water with which the people of Paradise will bathe. Then they will sprout forth just as crops grow from water. Then the Prophets will intercede for those who said "La ilaha illallah" (There is no god but Allah) with sincerity. Then Allah Almighty will bestow further mercy upon the people of Hell and will remove from Hell every person in whose heart there is even a grain's weight of faith.

Hazrat Abu Bakrah narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: On the Day of Resurrection, people will be brought to the Bridge of Sirat. People will fall from it into the Fire just as moths fall into the fire. Allah, the Exalted, will show mercy to whomever He wills. Then it will be said to the angels, the prophets, and the martyrs: Intercede. They will intercede and will bring people out of Hell. Then they will intercede again and bring more out. Then they will intercede again and bring more out. Then every person will be brought out who has even a mustard seed's weight of faith in his heart.
