Hellfire is punishment for stealing from the war booty

bukhari:3074 – ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh > Sufyān > ʿAmr > Sālim b. Abū al-Jaʿd > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAmr

There was a man in charge of the Prophet’s ﷺ baggage, called Kirkirah, and he died. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “He is in the Fire.” So they went to look at him and found a cloak that he had stolen from the booty.

البخاري:٣٠٧٤ – حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ

كَانَ عَلَى ثَقَلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ، يُقَالُ لَهُ كِرْكِرَةُ، فَمَاتَ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «هُوَ فِي النَّارِ». فَذَهَبُوا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَوَجَدُوا عَبَاءَةً قَدْ غَلَّهَا.

قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: قَالَ ابْنُ سَلاَمٍ: كَرْكَرَةُ يَعْنِي بِفَتْحِ الْكَافِ وَهْوَ مَضْبُوطٌ كَذَا.
