• Even the most fierce fire of this world is 69-fold cooler than the fire of Hell. [Bukhari].

•. Most of the inhabitants of Hell will be women. [Bukhari, Muslim].
• The people of Hell and the people of Paradise will never die again. [Bukhari, Muslim].

• Their upper lips would be touching their foreheads and the lower lip dangling around the navel, because of the punishments.
• Those who will go to Hell will be the haughty, greedy and proud persons. [Bukhari, Tirmidhi, Muslim].
• The people of Hell will be very big, the distance between their shoulders will be like three day's travelling for a fast rider. [Muslim].

• The molar of the kaafir or the eye-tooth of the kaafir, will be like the mountain Uhud. [Muslim, Tirmidhi].
• The breadth of each of the four walls around jahannum is equivalent to a distance covered by a walking journey of 40 years.

• The thickness of his skin will be like a journey of three days. [Hakiem, Ibn Majah, Ahmad, Muslim, Tirmidhi].
• The dwellers of Hell would be burnt daily for 70 thousand times.
• Every time, after the skin and flesh is burnt, they would be restored to life so that they can continuously taste this punishment.

• The Hell has seven big gates.
• God will never throw a person whom He loves in the Hell fire! [Al Hakiem].
• The dwellers of Jahannum would be bound in chains which would be greater in length than the distance between the sky and the earth.

• The people of Hell will eat from the tree of Zaqqum, which grows from the bottom of the Hell fire.
• If one drop from Zaqqum were to land on this world, the people of earth and all their means of sustenance would be destroyed. [Tirmidhi].

• Hell is infested with venomous donkeys and if they were to bite a person then he or she will suffer pain for 40 years.
• They will drink, Al Muhl, it is like boiling oil, and when it is brought near a person's face, the skin of the face falls off into it. [Ahmad].

• The tongues of hell-inmates would be so long and protruding from there mouths that others would trample and step on them.

•  Allah will will cut out for them garment of tar and a shield of scabs. [Ibn Majah].
• The clothes of sinners in Jahannum would be highly inflammable.
• Anyone who has even the weight of a mustard seed of faith in his heart, will be brought out of the Hell fire. [Muslim].

• The inmates of Jahannum would be lashed with heavy clubs of iron.
•  If one such club was to be placed upon this earth, the combined strength of all the human beings, as well as all the Jinns, would fail to lift it.

•  If a mountain is struck with one of these clubs it would cause the whole mountain to disintegrate.
•  There are some whom the Fire will take up to their ankles, others up to their knees, others up to their waists, and others up to their collarbones. [This is Narrated by Imaam Muslim and some other narrators].

•  No feet that gets dusty on Jihad will ever meet Hell fire. [Bukhari].
• Hameem will be poured on their heads and will dissolve through until it reaches their sides and all their innards will drop out. [Tirmidhi].
•  The people of Hell will be made to weep, and they will weep until they have no tears left. [Al Hakiem].

•  Then they will weep blood until they have as it were channels in their faces, if ships were put in them, they would float. [Al Hakiem].
• The person with the least punishment will be a man under whose feet will be placed a smouldering ember, and his brains will boil because of it. [This is narrated by Imaam Bukhari].
