2.Levels of Hell


The levels of Jannah (paradise) get better as you go up. With hell, the lower you go the worse. Allah says: “Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire [...]” (4:145)

There are levels above that – for example, the level in which RasulAllah’s (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) uncle will be in. Sa’eed al-Khudri reported: A mention was made of his uncle Abu Talib before the Messenger of Allah sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. He said: “My intercession may benefit him on the Day of Resurrection and he may be placed in the shallow part of the Fire which would reach his ankles and his brain would be boiling.” [Muslim, 1/411] And this is the least punishment in hell – you can imagine how bad the worse would be.
