Answer 1

Hell is reported in some Prophetic traditions to exist under the earth. The earth, through its yearly movement draws a large cycle which will be the place of mustering after the resurrection. This implies that Hell is under the orbit of the earth. The reason why it cannot be seen is that it consists of fire which gives no light, and accordingly is veiled. In the cycle around which the earth revolves many creatures exist though we cannot see them because they emit no light. In the same way as the moon becomes invisible when it is hidden from the light of the sun, so such spheres and creatures as emit no light cannot be seen, even though they are in front of our eyes.

There are two Hells, one minor, the other major. The minor Hell is under the earth or in its center. As geology teaches us, heat increases by one degree centigrade for every 33 meters towards the center of the earth. This means that, at the center of the earth, there is a temperature of 200,000˚C, given that the radius of the earth is six thousand kilometers. This is in agreement with a Prophetic tradition concerning the subject.

The minor Hell is employed to fulfill in this world and the intermediate one, many of the major Hell’s functions. It will be expanded into the major Hell in the other world. As the earth will empty out its contents into the place of mustering, which will be built in the orbit of the earth’s annual movement, so, too, it will transfer the minor Hell to the major one at the command of God. What caused some leading figures of the Mu’tazilite school to form the wrong opinion, namely that Hell would be created later, is that Hell has not yet been fully expanded so as to contain all its future contents. Besides, the stations of the other world are veiled from us so that, in order to see them, we would have to either have eyes as penetrating as star-light or to diminish the universe into small enough areas. The major Hell however, as implied in some Prophetic sayings, has some sort of relation with this world. Intense summer heat, for instance, is described as ‘coming from the heat of Hell’.

Though we can neither see the major Hell with our eyes nor comprehend it with the mind’s eye, we can nevertheless glimpse something of its nature through (the telescope of) the Divine Name, the All-Wise:

The major Hell appears to have deputed to the minor one, which is in the center of the earth, certain of its functions. The sovereignty of an Omnipotent One of majesty, a Wise One of perfection, Who owns the absolute power of the commanding words Be! and it is, has bound the moon to the earth, and the earth to the sun with perfect wisdom and order, and set the sun, together with its satellites, moving, according to a theory, towards the “sun of the suns” with a speed almost as great as the speed of the earth’s revolution around the sun. He has also made the stars, which may be likened to the electric lamps people hang up to adorn special occasions, as luminous evidences for the sovereignty of His Lordship and the greatness of His Power. It is not impossible for such a power and wisdom to make the major Hell function as the source of the ‘heat and fire’ of the stars which look to the heaven of the other world and to illuminate them with the light of Paradise. He is also able to make some sections of Hell a place of torment and a dungeon for people who deserve it. It is also not impossible for the power of the Majestic, All-Wise Creator, who makes a fruit-stone the size of a thumbnail contain a tree, to make the minor Hell encapsulate the major one until an appointed time.

In conclusion, Paradise and Hell are two fruits growing on the tip of a branch extending from the tree of creation far into eternity. They are two opposite outcomes of the chain of being. The places of these outcomes are on opposite ends of the chain, the degraded one on the lower end, and the luminous, sublime one on the upper.

Paradise and Hell are also two storerooms of the flow of worldly events and the spiritual products of the earth. One of these storerooms, which is being filled with evil products, is below while its opposite is above. They are also two pools, where two streams of beings are emptied, one carrying the wicked and foul ones while the other carries the good and pure. Paradise is the place where the Divine favor and mercy manifest themselves. And Hell is the place where the wrath and awe of God are exhibited. The Gracious, All-Merciful One, Who is the All-Majestic and All-Omnipotent, manifests Himself (through His Names and Attributes) wherever He wishes.

The existence of Paradise and Hell was clearly argued in the Tenth and Twenty-ninth Words. We would like to add here only that the existence of the fruit is as evident as that of the branch, the results as that of the chain, the storeroom as that of the products, the pool as that of the stream, and the place of manifestation as that of mercy and wrath.

How will the Place of Mustering be built, and how will people be gathered together there? Will they be naked? How will we be able to meet friends there and find God’s noble Messenger to request his intercession? How will God’s Messenger meet countless people personally? How will the people of Paradise and Hell be clothed? Who will show us the way?
The answers to those questions are found very clearly in the books of Hadith. So, I will only mention a few points relevant to our way:

The earth draws a huge circle through its annual movement and empties every year into the tablets of that circle the immaterial outcome of its yearly life – the immaterial consequences of what has happened on it throughout the year. On the Day of Judgment, the total outcome of the earth’s whole life will take on the form peculiar to the Hereafter. As the earth will submit, on the Last Day, the minor hell in its center, it will also empty its contents into the Place of Mustering, which will be built on the annual orbit of the earth.

It has been decisively proved that the dead will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment and assembled in the Place of Mustering.
How a single person – God’s Messenger – will meet everyone has been proved in the Sixteenth, Thirty-first and Thirty-second Words. Just as a single sun can be present, by virtue of being a luminary, at the same moment in countless different places, so too, God’s Messenger can, through the luminosity of his spirit, be present at the same time in thousands of different places and meet millions of people.
God Almighty supplies in this life a natural covering for His living creatures except man. So, as a requirement of His being All-Wise, He will provide a natural covering in the Place of Mustering for people who will be naked of artificial clothes. Man wears artificial clothes in this world not only to shelter from cold and heat or to cover his private parts but also as a sign of his commanding position over other species of creation and disposal of them. If this was not so, he would be clothed quite simply. Without this wisdom, requiring man to be clothed somewhat elaborately, a man dressed in rags would be ridiculed among other conscious beings. However, since this wisdom will not be sought in the Place of Mustering, there will be no need for man to be dressed in artificial clothes.
The guide for those who, like you, sheltered in the world under the light of the Qur’an, will be the Qur’an itself. Look at the opening verses of the Qur’an beginning with Alif-Lam-Mim, Alif-Lam-Ra and Ha-Mim, and see what an acceptable intercessor, what a true guide and what a sacred light, the Qur’-an is.
Concerning the clothes of the people of Paradise and Hell:

A man of Paradise desires to get, at the same time, uninterrupted pleasure from every section of Paradise. Paradise has innumerable kinds of beauties with which he has continual intercourse. So, he clothes himself in specimens of those beauties, thus each becoming a miniature paradise. In the same way as a man grows in his own garden a sample of each kind of flower in his country, or a shopkeeper lists the examples of the items in his shop, or a man makes a piece of furniture out of the specimens of the creatures with which he has a relation, a man of Paradise will be dressed by God’s Mercy in a special garment showing the beauties of Paradise in a way to please each sense and feeling, and satisfy each faculty, of theirs, especially one who has been able to worship God in the world with all his senses and faculties and therefore deserves all the pleasures of Paradise. The garments to be worn by the people of Paradise will not be of the same kind; every one of them, from the most outer to the most inner, is of a different level to please senses and feelings in a different way with its different particular beauties. It is likewise in accordance with wisdom and justice that, since the people of Hell committed in the world sins with their eyes, ears, hearts, hands, intellects and so on, they will be dressed in garments of different kinds which will each cause them to suffer a special torment and be like a miniature hell for them.

Answer 2

There were a lot of really dumb questions here, sadly I am level one so I cannot report the racist dude who said there was for races. I actually just explained races on another Question but I won't go there..

There is one Hell. No purgartory. The Hell preached about by most Bible-believers is not the place where Jesus went or David is, that is a place for the Jews and likely just the Jews from before Christ. Hell itself is the eternal place non-true Christians will go after they face judgment. Judgement takes place after the end of the earth. Those whom did not know Jesus (intimately) will not enter the kingdom of Heaven and believing doesn't cut it. Even demons believe in Jesus.

Demons are not going to be in hell. That is why they are on the earth, because there was no place in hell or heaven for them.

The four angels along with Lucifer will be placed in Hell with the humans going there. It is a place without rest, where you are constantly feeling as though you are fire. There is no ceasng of hell. It will never end.

I urge people to really get to know Jesus Christ and ask for the Holy Spirit to fill them and cleanse them of sin, and lead them away from evil paths. Hell is not going to be fun and it IS real. being a good person won't cut, nor does just believing in Jesus. True Christianity is when one person lays down His life at the foot of the Savior's, gives up all he is, and follows every step, takes every breath, in the Word of God.

Answer 3

That reference is to Dante Alighieri's Inferno, a part of the Divine Comedy, which is a fascinating read and a classic.

The archaic wording is difficult to understand so you should get Cliffnotes or Sparknotes so you dont have to muck through all the cumbersome allusions and outdated idioms.

The Inferno is really amazing because Dante put some of the people he hated in different parts of Hell.

I think there were 9 "rings" of Hell. And they were in concentric rings (like a target with a bullseye in the center). The worst parts of hell were the innermost rings, and the not so bad bits were the outer rings.

Answer 4

HELLS

The angels are in tarturus hell waiting for judgement day since the flood Jude 6; 2Pet.2:4 because angels do not die Luke 20:34-36; and the angels are doing just fine in their prision and Jesus went to visit them 1Pet.3:18-20; [ how bad can that be ? ].

Jesus was resurrected from sepulchre hell Acts 2:31-35 and David was still there.
John 19:38-42 Jesus was in the cave, tomb, grave or sepulchre where most dead are.
David is still there John 3:13-17 [ No one went to heaven but Jesus ];
Mark 9:42-48 and Jer,19:2-5; Death and burial by fire or burial by fire. Matt.10:29, God can resurrect any that man does this to [ Sacrifice of children in the fire ];

Answer 5

You're getting a lot of incorrect and misleading answers here from the bible-ignorant. The bible clearly suggests there is more than one section of hell, as there are two references to the "lowest hell" (Deu 32: 22 and PSA 86: 13. But there are no more details in the bible than that. Contrary to what some believe, the bible (KJV) does not mention purgatory at all. According to Revelation, on the day of judgement, god liberates everyone from hell and judges them along with the other dead, then destroys hell by throwing it into the lake of fire.

Answer 6

That information is not part of the bible. That theory is part of a book written the 1300s and is called the divine comedy. According to the writing, there are 9 circles of hell, depending upon your sins.

Answer 7

No, this is not true. Hell is Hell. It is not divided. In God's eyes a little white lie is just as bad as murder. Sin is sin, it's all the same and it holds the same punishment. Hell, unless you repent and get saved.

Answer 8

Yes there are different parts of hell. According to the Quran and also to traditions of the Prophet Muhammad(saws) there are thousands of parts of hell and it's absolutely terrible.

Answer 9

Eternal torment in hell is a myth that was adopted into Christianity from Greek mythology. At the end of time when the final judgement of God comes upon the wicked lost they will be destroyed by "fire out of heaven". They will be utterly destroyed in the lake of fire and be no more. They will not burn forever and ever. "They will be ashes under our feet."

Answer 10

Yes. You should read the Qur'an. The smaller Suras (or Chapters) towards the end of the book will give you an idea of what a person will expect to find in Hell.

Answer 11

Yes. There is a section for lawyers, another for politicians. And one for used car salesmen. Oil tycoons and insurance executives live in an exclusive section. Automobile mechanics live in a very large subdivision on the outskirts.
