The Hell

As for those who do not believe, their wealth and children will not help them against Allah in any way. They are fuel for the Fire. (Qur'an, 3:10)

You and what you worship besides Allah are fuel for Hell. You will go down into it. (Qur'an, 21:98)

If you do not do that— and you will not do it— then fear the Fire whose fuel is people and stones, made ready for the unbelievers. (Qur'an, 2:24)

You who believe! Safeguard yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones. Harsh, terrible angels are in charge of it who do not disobey Allah in respect of any order He gives them and carry out what they are ordered to do. (Qur'an, 66:6)

IT WILL BE FILLED WITH UNBELIEVERS

Except for those your Lord has mercy on. That is what He created them for—so that the Word of your Lord would be fulfilled: 'I will fill up Hell with the jinn and mankind all together.'(Qur'an, 11:119)

'Had We so willed We could have given guidance to everyone, but now My Words are shown to be true: that I shall fill up Hell entirely with jinn and human beings. (Qur'an, 32:13)

IT IS THE FINAL DESTINATION FOR THE UNBELIEVERS

A homecoming for the profligate. (Qur'an, 78:22)

When Our Signs are recited to them— Clear Signs— you can detect denial in the faces of those who do not believe. They all but assault those who recite Our Signs to them! Say: 'Shall I inform you of something worse than that? The Fire which Allah has promised those who do not believe. What an evil destination!' (Qur'an, 22:72)

Do those who do not believe imagine that they can take My servants as protectors instead of Me? We have prepared Hell as hospitality for the unbelievers! (Qur'an, 18:102)

IT IS THE MOST EVIL REFUGE

Is someone who pursues the pleasure of Allah the same as someone who incurs displeasure from Allah and whose refuge is Hell? What an evil destination! (Qur'an, 3:162)

But if anyone opposes the Messenger after the guidance has become clear to him, and follows other than the path of the believers, We will hand him over to whatever he has turned to, and We will roast him in Hell. What an evil destination! (Qur'an, 4:115)

We will cast terror into the hearts of those who do not believe because they have associated others with Allah for which He has not sent down any authority. Their shelter will be the Fire. How evil is the abode of the wrongdoers! (Qur'an, 3:151)

Hell, where they will roast? What an evil place to stay! (Qur'an, 14:29)

Allah will admit those who believe to Gardens with rivers flowing under them. Those who do not believe have their enjoyment, eating as cattle eat,but the Fire will be their final residence. (Qur'an, 47:12)

THE FIRE IS THE GATHERING
PLACE OF THE UNBELIEVERS

Hell is the promised meeting-place for all of them. (Qur'an, 15:43)

IT IS NARROW AND DISTRESSING

When they are flung into a narrow place in it, shackled together in chains, they will cry out there for destruction. (Qur'an, 25:13)

IT IS DARK AND MURKY

And the murk of thick black smoke, providing no coolness and no pleasure. (Qur'an, 56:43-44)

IT IS SURROUNDED BY WALLS

That Day the men and women of the hypocrites will say to those who believe, 'Wait for us so that we can borrow some of your light.'They will be told, 'Go back and look for light!'And a wall will be erected between them with a gate in it, on the inside of which there will be mercy but before whose exterior lies the punishment. (Qur'an, 57:13)

IT HAS A SEETHING AND RASPING SOUND

When it sees them coming from a long way off, they will hear it seething and rasping. (Qur'an, 25:12)

IT HAS A GRUMBLING SOUND

When they are flung into it they will hear it gasping harshly as it seethes. (Qur'an, 67:7)

IT SPEAKS AND CALLS TO MAN

On the Day He says to Hell, 'Are you full?', it will ask, 'Are there no more to come?' (Qur'an, 50:30)

THE MOANING OF THOSE IN HELL WILL BE HEARD

There will be sighing for them in it and they will not be able to hear. (Qur'an, 21:100)

AND IT WILL NEVER BE EASED

They will be under it for ever. Their punishment will not be lightened. They will be granted no reprieve. (Qur'an, 3:88)

They will want to get out of the Fire but they will not be able to. They will have an everlasting punishment. (Qur'an, 5:37)

Whereas for those who did not believe will have Hell fire. They will not be killed off so that they die and its punishment will not be lightened for them. That is how We repay every thankless man. (Qur'an, 35:36)

The Fire, morning and night, to which they are exposed; and on the Day the Hour takes place: 'Admit Pharaoh's people to the harshest punishment!' When they are squabbling with one another in the Fire, the weak will say to those deemed great, 'We were your followers, so why do you not relieve us of a portion of the Fire?' (Qur'an, 40:46-47)

Then it will be said to those who did wrong, 'Taste the punishment of eternity! Have you been repaid for anything other than what you earned?' (Qur'an, 10:52)

Here are two rival groups who disputed concerning their Lord. Those who do not believe will have garments of fire cut out for them, and boiling water poured over their heads. (Qur'an, 22:19)

Say: 'It is the truth from your Lord; so let whoever wishes believe and whoever wishes do not believe.' We have prepared for the wrongdoers a Fire whose billowing walls of smoke will hem them in. If they call for help, they will be helped with water like seething molten brass, frying their faces. What a noxious drink! What an evil repose! (Qur'an, 18:29)

They will have scalding water to drink and a painful punishment because they did not believe. (Qur'an, 6:70)

Each and every one of you will return to Him. Allah's promise is true.

OF ZAQQUM AND A BITTER THORNY BUSH

The Tree of az-Zaqqum is the food of the wicked, seething in the belly like molten brass, as boiling water bubbles and seethes. (Qur'an, 44:43-46)

Is that better by way of hospitality or the tree of Zaqqum which We have made to be an ordeal for the wrongdoers? It is a tree that emerges in the depths of the Blazing Fire. Its fruits are just like the heads of satans. (Qur'an, 37:62-65)

Will eat from the tree of Zaqqum, filling your stomachs with it. (Qur'an, 56:52-53)

THERE THEY WILL ACKNOWLEDGE
THEIR WRONG ACTIONS

It all but bursts with rage. Each time a group is flung into it its custodians will question them: 'Did no warner come to you?' They will say, 'Yes indeed, a warner did come to us but we denied him and said, "Allah has sent nothing down.You are just greatly misguided."' They will say, 'If only we had really listened and used our intellect,we would not have been Companions of the Blaze.' Then they will acknowledge their wrong actions.Away with the Companions of the Blaze! (Qur'an, 67:8:11)

THEY REGRET THEIR ACTIONS

If only you could see when they are standing before the Fire and saying, 'Oh! If only we could be sent back again, we would not deny the Signs of our Lord and we would be among the believers.'(Qur'an, 6:27)

They will say on the Day their faces are rolled over in the Fire, 'If only we had obeyed Allah and obeyed the Messenger! (Qur'an, 33:66)

They will say, 'Yes indeed, a warner did come to us but we denied him and said, "Allah has sent nothing down. You are just greatly misguided."' They will say, 'If only we had really listened and used our intellect, we would not have been Companions of the Blaze.' Then they will acknowledge their wrong actions.Away with the Companions of the Blaze! (Qur'an, 67:9-11)

Arguing in it with one another, they will say, 'By Allah, we were plainly misguided when We equated you with the Lord of all the worlds. It was only the evildoers who misguided us and now we have no one to intercede for us; we do not have a single loyal friend. If only we could have another chance then we would be among the believers!' There is certainly a Sign in that, yet most of them are not believers. (Qur'an,26:96-103)

THERE WILL BE NO ESCAPE FROM HELL

The evildoers will see the Fire and realise they are going to fall into it and find no way of escaping from it. (Qur'an, 18:53)

THEY WILL WANT TO RETURN TO THE LIFE
OF THIS WORLD TO ESCAPE FROM HELL
AND PERFORM GOOD DEEDS

They will shout out in it, 'Our Lord! Take us out! We will act rightly, differently from the way we used to act!' Did We not let you live long enough for anyone who was going to pay heed to pay heed? And did not the warner come to you? Taste it then! There is no helper for the wrongdoers. (Qur'an, 35:37)

THEY WILL CALL FOR DESTRUCTION

When they are flung into a narrow place in it, shackled together in chains, they will cry out there for destruction. 'Do not cry out today for just one destruction, cry out for many destructions!' (Qur'an, 25:13-14)

They will call out (to the custodian of the Hell), 'Malik, let your Lord put an end to us!' He will say, 'You will stay the way you are.' We brought you the truth but most of you hated the truth. (Qur'an, 43:77-78)

We have warned you of an imminent punishment on the Day when a man will see what he has done, and the unbeliever will say, 'Oh, if only I were dust!' (Qur'an, 78:40)

THEY WILL DISPUTE WITH EACH OTHER

He will say, 'Enter the Fire together with the nations of jinn and men who have passed away before you.' Each time a nation enters, it will curse its sister nation, until, when they are all gathered together in it, the last of them will say to the first, 'Our Lord, those are the ones who misguided us, so give them a double punishment in the Fire.' He will say, 'Each will receive double. But you do not know it.' (Qur'an, 7:38)

All this is certainly true—the bickering of the people of the Fire. (Qur'an, 38:64)

They will say, 'No, it is you who have no welcome. It is you who brought it upon us. What an evil place to settle!' They will say, 'Our Lord, give him who brought this on us double the punishment in the Fire!' They will say, 'How is it that we do not see some men whom we used to count among the worst of people? Did we turn them into figures of fun? Did our eyes disdain to look at them?' (Qur'an, 38:60-63)

THEY WILL WANT TO PUNISH THOSE WHO MISGUIDED THEM

Those who do not believe say, 'Our Lord, show us those jinn and men who misguided us and we will place them beneath our feet so that they will be among the lowest of the low.' (Qur'an, 41:29)
