[Machine] Yes, by Allah, you do not know that between the flesh of one of them's ear and his shoulder is a distance of seventy years, during which the valleys of pus and blood flow. I said, "Valleys?" He said, "Yes, indeed, valleys." Then he said, "Do you know how vast Hell is?" I said, "No." He said, "Yes, by Allah, we do not know. Aisha told me that she asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about His saying, 'And the earth all together is His handful on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens are rolled up in His right hand.' (39:67) So where will the people be on that day, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "They will be on a bridge over Hell."
