[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "As for the people of Hell, they are its inhabitants who never die and never live. And as for those whom Allah wills for them mercy, He will cause them to die in the Fire, then enter upon them the intercessors, who will take out a man-sized clump from the Hellfire and throw them into the river of Hayya (or Hayawan or Hayat, or the river of Jannah), and they will grow the plants of a seed in the furrows of the flood." Some of them said, "It is as if the Prophet ﷺ was in the desert."  

أحمد:١١٠١٦حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ يَعْنِي التَّيْمِيَّ عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَّا أَهْلُ النَّارِالَّذِينَ هُمْ أَهْلُهَا لَا يَمُوتُونَ وَلَا يَحْيَوْنَ وَأَمَّا أُنَاسٌ يُرِيدُ اللهُ بِهِمُ الرَّحْمَةَ فَيُمِيتُهُمْ فِي النَّارِ فَيَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهِمُ الشُّفَعَاءُ فَيَأْخُذُ الرَّجُلُ الضُّبَارَةَ فَيَبُثُّهُمْ أَوْ قَالَ فَيُبَثُّونَ عَلَى نَهَرِ الْحَيَا أَوْ قَالَ الْحَيَوَانِ أَوْ قَالَ الْحَيَاةِ أَوْ قَالَ نَهَرِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَنْبُتُونَ نَبَاتَ الْحِبَّةِ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا تَرَوْنَ الشَّجَرَةَ تَكُونُ خَضْرَاءَ ثُمَّ تَكُونُ صَفْرَاءَ؟ أَوْ قَالَ تَكُونُ صَفْرَاءَ ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خَضْرَاءَ قَالَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ كَأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ بِالْبَادِيَةِ
