It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that people will be brought to the bridge over Hell, where there will be hooks, thorns, and snatching things. Some people will pass over it like lightning, some like the wind, some like fast-running horses, some running, some walking, some crawling, and some passing on their buttocks. As for the rest, the people of Hell will neither be alive nor dead in it. However, some people will be seized because of their sins and will be burnt to coal. Then Allah Almighty will permit intercession, and they will be taken out of Hell in groups. Then they will be dipped into a river, and they will sprout forth just as a seed sprouts in mud. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the example of "Sabgha" for this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) further said that there will be three trees on the bridge of Sirat. A man will come out of Hell and reach their edge and will say, "O Lord! Turn my face away from Hell." Allah will take a covenant from him that after this he will not ask for anything more. Meanwhile, he will see a tree and say, "O Lord! Bring me near this tree so that I may benefit from its shade and eat its fruit." Allah will again take the same promise from him. Suddenly, he will see another tree and say, "O Lord! Bring me near this tree so that I may benefit from its shade and eat its fruit." Allah will again take the same promise from him. Suddenly, he will see an even more beautiful tree and say, "O Lord! Bring me near this tree so that I may benefit from its shade and eat its fruit." Allah will again take the same promise from him. Then he will see the shade of the people and hear their voices, so he will say, "O Lord! Admit me into Paradise." There is a difference of opinion between Hazrat Abu Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) and another companion (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding this: according to one of them, he will be admitted into Paradise and given the world and one time more than it, and according to the other, he will be given the world and ten times more than it.
