The (permanent) inhabitants of the Fire are those who are doomed to it, and verily they would neither die nor live in it (al-Qur'an, xx. 47; lxxxvii. 13). But the people whom the Fire would afflict (temporarily) on account of their sins, or so said (the narrator)" on account of their misdeeds," He would cause them to die till they would be turned into charcoal. Then they would be granted intercession and would be brought in groups and would be spread on the rivers of Paradise and then it would be said: O inhabitants of Paradise, pour water over them; then they would sprout forth like the sprouting of seed in the silt carried by flood. A man among the people said: (It appears) as if the Messenger of Allah lived in the steppe.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَّا أَهْلُ النَّارِ الَّذِينَ هُمْ أَهْلُهَا فَإِنَّهُمْ لاَ يَمُوتُونَ فِيهَا وَلاَ يَحْيَوْنَ وَلَكِنْ نَاسٌ أَصَابَتْهُمُ النَّارُ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ أَوْ قَالَ بِخَطَايَاهُمْ فَأَمَاتَهُمْ إِمَاتَةً حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا فَحْمًا أُذِنَ بِالشَّفَاعَةِ فَجِيءَ بِهِمْ ضَبَائِرَ ضَبَائِرَ فَبُثُّوا عَلَى أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ قِيلَ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ أَفِيضُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَنْبُتُونَ نَبَاتَ الْحِبَّةِ تَكُونُ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ كَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَ بِالْبَادِيَةِ  

“As for the people of Hell, who are its people (i.e., its permanent residents), they will neither die nor live therein. But there are some people who will be punished with fire because of their sins, whom it will kill, then when they have become like coal, permission will be granted for intercession for them. They will be brought, group by group, and scattered on the banks of the rivers of Paradise. It will be said: ‘O people of Paradise, pour water on them.’ Then they will grow like seeds carried by a flood (i.e., quickly).” A man among the people said: It is as if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has been in the desert.”  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَّا أَهْلُ النَّارِ الَّذِينَ هُمْ أَهْلُهَا فَإِنَّهُمْ لاَ يَمُوتُونَ فِيهَا وَلاَ يَحْيَوْنَ وَلَكِنْ نَاسٌ أَصَابَتْهُمُ النَّارُ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ أَوْ بِخَطَايَاهُمْ فَأَمَاتَتْهُمْ إِمَاتَةً حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا فَحْمًا أُذِنَ لَهُمْ فِي الشَّفَاعَةِ فَجِيءَ بِهِمْ ضَبَائِرَ ضَبَائِرَ فَبُثُّوا عَلَى أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ فَقِيلَ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ أَفِيضُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَنْبُتُونَ نَبَاتَ الْحِبَّةِ تَكُونُ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ كَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَ فِي الْبَادِيَةِ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Indeed, the people of the Fire, who are the inhabitants of the Fire, do not die in it nor do they live. However, it (the Fire) will afflict a group of people with their sins or transgressions until, when they become like charcoal, permission will be granted for intercession, and they will be brought out in piles. They will then be thrown onto the rivers of Paradise, and it will be said, 'O people of Paradise, pour water on them.' Then they will grow like seeds in the silt of a river."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَهْلَ النَّارِ الَّذِينَ هُمْ أَهْلُ النَّارِ لَا يَمُوتُونَ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَوْنَ وَلَكِنَّهَا تُصِيبُ قَوْمًا بِذُنُوبِهِمْ أَوْ خَطَايَاهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا صَارُوا فَحْمًا أُذِنَ فِي الشَّفَاعَةِ فَيُخْرَجُونَ ضَبَائِرَ ضَبَائِرَ فَيُلْقَوْنَ عَلَى أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيُقَالُ يَا أَهْلَالْجَنَّةِ أَهْرِيقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ الْمَاءِ قَالَ فَيَنْبُتُونَ كَمَا تَنْبُتُ الْحِبَّةُ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ

"أَمَّا أهلُ النَّارِ الذين هُمْ أَهْلُها فَإِنَّهم لا يموتون فيها ولا يَحْيَوْنَ، ولكن ناسٌ أصابتهم النَّارُ بذنوبِهم، فأماتَتْهُم إِماتةً إِذَا كانوا فَحْمًا أُذِن بالشَّفَاعَةِ فَجِئَ بهم ضبائرَ ضبائرَ ، فَبُثُّوا على أنهار الجنَّة، ثم قيل: يا أهلَ الجنَّةِ أفيِضوا عَليهمْ، فَيَنْبِتُونَ نباتَ الحبَّةِ تكون في حميل السيل".
