'The lightest punishment in Hell'

Recommended Posts

Muslim01   

The Prophet sallahu alayhi wa salam said: “The most lightly punished person in Hell will have two sandals and laces of fire because of which his brains will boil like a cauldron*. He will not think that anyone else is more severely punished than him, but he will be the most lightly punished.”

 

[Sahih Bukhari 6562; Muslim; 213]

 

*A cauldron is a large metal pot (kettle) for cooking and/or boiling over an open fire

Laa xawla walaa quwata ilaa bilaah. Shivers!

 

You know, incidently, this came up in a xalaqa of ours tonight. We were covering tafseer surah Hud, when Allah commands Fir'awn and his qaum to be punished at the severest level; this hadeeth was brought up, and I thought to myself, how will the worst level of jahanam fare if the lightest level is of this magnitude? Inconceivable. Subxanallah.

subhanallah difficult to think about. I think this punishment is somehow connected with saw's uncle abu talib, who didn't say the shahada on his deathbed but who helped the Prophet saw a great deal.
