Specific People Who Will Be In Hell

 

 

    The kuffaar and mushikreen will be in Hell, no doubt about
it, but the Qur'an and hadith also mention specific people who will
be in the Fire. One of them is the Pharaoh who ruled at the time of
Musa (as):

"He [Pharaoh] will go before his people on the Day of
Judgement, and will lead them into the Fire.."
(11:98)

Also included are the wives of Nuh (as) and Lut
(as):

"Allah sets forth for an example to the unbelievers,
the wife of Nuh and the
wife of
Lut. They were [respectively] under two of Our righteous slaves, but
they were false to their [husbands] and they profited nothing before
Allah on their account, but were told: "Enter the Fire, along with
those who enter!"
(66:10)

Abu Lahab and his wife are also among those mentioned
specifically:

"Perish the hands of the Father of Flame [Abu Lahab]!
Perish he! No profit to him from all his wealth and all his gains!
Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of blazing flames! His wife shall
carry the [crackling] wood, as fuel! A twisted rope of palm fibre
round her [own] neck!" (111:1-5)

Another of them is 'Amr ibn 'Aamir al-Khuzaa'i, whom the
Prophet (saw) being disembowelled in Hell (sahih hadith narrated by
al-Bukhaari, Muslim, Ahmad); and the one who killed 'Ammar and
plundered his possessions. A report with a Saheeh isnaad quoted in
Mu'jam at-Tabaraani from 'Amr ibn al-'Aas, and his son states that
the Prophet (saw) said, "The one who killed 'Ammaar and
plundered his possessions will be in Hell". (Saheeh
al-Jaami', 4/110, #4170)
