What did the scholars say about Hell (Jahannam)?

"for asking Him to protect them from the punishment of the Fire, as they said: "Our Lord, You have not created this in vain. Exalted are You, so protect us from the punishment of the Fire." The Prophet also advised أُمّ حَبِيبَة, saying: "If you ask اللّٰه to protect you from the punishment of the Fire, it would be better for you." He frequently sought refuge from the punishment of the Fire and the torment of the grave, and he instructed مُسْلِمs to seek refuge in their prayers from the torment of the grave, the punishment of the Fire, the trials of life and death, and the trial of the false messiah."

"comparison falls short, for the fire of this world is not like the fire of hell. The most intense torment in this world is through fire, which is why the punishment of hell is known by it. If the inhabitants of hell were to encounter worldly fire, they would eagerly immerse themselves in it to escape their current torment."

"who wears shoes of fire, which will boil his brain from the heat of his shoes. Consider now those who receive a lightened punishment, and compare this to those upon whom it is intensified. If you ever doubt the severity of the punishment of the fire, consider this. Draw your finger close to a flame and compare it. But know that this comparison falls short, for the fire of this world is not like the fire of hell."

"Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and we heard a thud, is narrated by Muslim. The hadith, The least severe punishment for the people of hell on the day of judgment will be for one who wears shoes of fire, is agreed upon from the hadith of Al-Numan Ibn Bashir. The hadith that the fire of this world was washed seventy times by the waters of mercy until it became bearable is mentioned by Ibn Abd al-Bahr from the hadith of Ibn Abbas. It is said that this fire was doused with seawater seven times, otherwise no one could benefit from it. Al-Bazar narrates from the hadith of Anas, though it is weak. The hadith instructing that it be kindled for a thousand"

"for the fire of separation, when it prevails, might surpass the fire that burns bodies. For the fire of separation is the fire of Allah, kindled, which raises itself to hearts, whereas the fire of Hell concerns itself only with bodies, and the pain of bodies is trifling compared with the pain of the heart. Thus, it is said: In the lover's heart is a consuming fire..."

"Let the trial visit you, leave its path clear, and do not stand in its way with your supplication, nor be distressed by its arrival and proximity, for its fire is not greater than the fire of Hell and its blaze. It has been established in the report narrated from the best of creation and the best whom the earth has carried and the sky has sheltered, Muhammad the Chosen, may God's peace and blessings be upon him and his family and companions: 'Indeed, the fire of Hell says to the believer, "Pass, O believer, for your light has extinguished my flames."' Was it not the light of the believer that extinguished the flames of the fire?"

"the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, Whoever kills himself with an iron tool, then his iron tool will be in his hand, stabbing himself in his belly in the fire of hell, abiding therein forever. And whoever kills himself with poison, then his poison will be in his hand, drinking it in the fire of hell, abiding therein forever. And whoever throws himself from a mountain and kills himself, he will be falling into the fire of hell, abiding therein forever. This is also narrated in the two Sahihs. In the narration of Thabit ibn al-Dahhaq, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, Cursing a believer is like killing"

"polytheists and Allah the Exalted says and those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend it in the way of Allah give them tidings of a painful punishment the day it will be heated in the fire of hell and their foreheads sides and backs will be branded with it this is what you hoarded for yourselves so taste what you used to hoard it has been established from the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him that he said there is no owner of gold or silver who does not pay its due except that on the day of resurrection he will be made to wear plates of fire which will be heated for him in the fire of hell and his forehead"

"Hadith: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from disbelief, debt, and poverty, and I seek refuge in You from the punishment of Hell, and I seek refuge in You from the trial of the Dajjal. This was reported by Al-Nasa'i and Al-Hakim, who said it has a sound chain from the hadith of Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri from the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, who used to say from disbelief and debt; in a narration by Al-Nasa’i from disbelief and poverty, and by Muslim from the hadith of Abu Huraira that the Prophet, peace be upon him, used to seek refuge from the punishment of the grave, the punishment of Hell, and the trial of the Dajjal, and by the two sheikhs from the hadith of Aisha,"

"who has no insight, you will see him. But when you see a man of insight who is also patient — that is the man." God the Exalted said: "And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command, when they were patient and had certainty in Our signs." For this reason the soul is likened to fire in the swiftness of its movement and its ruinous effect, and its anger and its appetite are from fire, and Satan is from fire. In the Sunan, it is related from the Prophet that he said: "Anger is from Satan, and Satan is from fire, and fire is quenched only by water; so when one of you grows angry, let him perform ablution." And in another hadith:"
