My father رحمه الله narrated to us. He said: `Ali b. Ibrahim b. Hashim narrated to us from his father from `Ali b. al-Hakam from al-Mufaddal b. Salih from Jabir from Abi Ja`far عليه السلام. He said: When this verse, “And brought, that Day, is Hell” (89:23) was revealed, the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم was asked about that, so he said: The Trustworthy Spirit informed me that when Allah – and there is no god except Him – raises the creation, and brings the firsts and the lasts together, He will bring forth Hell, which be steered by one thousand reins, and each rein will be held by one thousand rough, severe angels. It has a clunk, rage, a wail, and a howl. It wails with a wail. Had Allah not delayed them for the Judgment, it would have consumed everything. Then, a flare will emerge from it that will surround the creatures, both the righteous and the transgressor. Allah has not created a servant from the servants of Allah, nor an angel, nor a prophet, except that he will call out: “My self, my self!” But you, O Prophet of Allah, will call out: “My Nation, my Nation!” Then, a Path will be placed upon it that is thinner than a hair and sharper than a sword. There will be three arches upon it: the first will be safety and mercy, the second will be prayer, and the third will be the justice of the Lord of the Worlds, there is no god except Him. They will be made to pass upon it, then safety and mercy will trap them. If they overcome that, then prayer will trap them. If they overcome that, then the end is to the Lord of the Worlds, and that is His saying, “Surely, your Lord is in observation” (89:14). The people will be upon the Path, and they will hang from it with the hand, and the foot will slip, so they will cling [to it] by the foot. The angels around it will call: “O Forbearing One! Forgive, and fulfill Your promise, by Your grace! Give peace, give peace.” The people will fall into the Fire like a moth. If a person is saved by mercy and passes through it, he will say: “Praise be to Allah, and by His blessing, good works are fulfilled, and good deeds are purified. Praise be to Allah, who saved me from you after despair by His favour and His grave. Surely, our Lord is Forgiving and Thankworthy.”
