It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: A bridge will be placed over Hell. Then he, peace and blessings be upon him, said: I will be the first to cross over that bridge. On that day, even the call of the Messengers will be: O Allah! Keep [us] safe, keep [us] safe. On that bridge, there will be hooks like the thorns of Sa‘dan, bent like them. Have you seen the thorns of Sa‘dan? The Companions said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah! He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: They will be like the thorns of Sa‘dan, but none knows their great size except Allah, the Exalted. People will be snatched away according to their deeds; some will perish just like that, and some will be destroyed, torn into pieces.
